A brief earthquake was felt in Fuorigrotta and in other areas of the Campi Flegrei on the evening of 9 November 2026.
According to Il Mattino, the tremor was felt at 20:45, and its headline identifies the event as magnitude 2.2. The Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) independently records a Md 2.2 earthquake in the Campi Flegrei at 20:45:03 Italian time.
Where and when it happened
INGV located the event at coordinates 40.8233, 14.1590, with a reported depth of 3 km. The location was determined by the Sala Operativa INGV-OV in Naples.
The tremor was reported as felt in Fuorigrotta and in other parts of the Campi Flegrei area. The available sources do not provide a verified count of felt reports, and no information about damage was reported.
Initial estimates versus the official record
Early reporting placed the epicentre near Bagnoli with a depth of 1.1 km, while the INGV event record gives coordinates near 40.8233, 14.1590 and a depth of 3 km. The official INGV estimate should be treated as the current reference.
Readers should keep in mind that hypocentral coordinates and magnitude for small Campi Flegrei events are preliminary. INGV notes that these values may change as additional data become available or further analysis is completed.
How to check official updates
INGV-Osservatorio Vesuviano maintains a public seismic-event database for the Campi Flegrei. Residents who felt the tremor or want to follow subsequent updates can consult the official INGV event pages and the Osservatorio Vesuviano GOSSIP database rather than relying on social-media reports.
