The parameters and instrumental data of the registration of the strong Jinhe earthquake on August 8, 2017, as well as the geological environment and seismotectonic situation of the epicenter area are described. The trigger effects for the initiation of an earthquake associated with a dynamic change in weather and climatic conditions in a high-altitude area, which led to a rapid increase in the excess mass of the geological environment after heavy rains and heavy snowfalls, as well as with the increased effect of lunar-solar tidal forces on the seismogenic structure with an excess mass of the geological environment during the days of the full moon.
