What it means
An earthquake of magnitude 3.6 was recorded at a depth of 3 km, near 8 km al SUROESTE de PUERTO PEÑASCO, SON, on 29/10 at 20:26 UTC. The data is preliminary and may be updated.
Within 50 km of the epicentre, 3 events were recorded in the last 30 days (maximum magnitude 3.6). It is the strongest quake in the area in the last 30 days. The hypocentre is shallow, at a depth of 3 km.
An earthquake in this magnitude range is considered small to moderate. Shallow quakes like this one are often felt clearly by people nearby, even though their effects are usually limited to brief shaking or rattling objects. Because the rupture is close to the surface, the shaking can seem sharper than a deeper event of similar size. Quakes of this kind are often followed by smaller aftershocks, as the rock along the fault adjusts in stages after the release of stress. For official updates and safety guidance, please refer to Protezione Civile and INGV.
It may contain errors: when in doubt, the source figure prevails.
