Overview
- The SSN logged a magnitude-6.0 quake on August 9 about 139 km southwest of Ciudad Hidalgo, Chiapas, at a depth of 38 km, and Guatemala’s CONRED confirmed no casualties or damage
- On August 10 two additional tremors—a 4.3-magnitude event near Ciudad Hidalgo and a 4.0-magnitude near Pepetlán, Guerrero—did not prompt Mexico City’s alert sirens
- Mexico’s seismic alert system did not activate because the recent quakes fell below predefined thresholds for magnitude, distance and energy needed to warn the public
- Authorities from the SSN and the Coordinación Nacional de Protección Civil continue real-time monitoring with no reported structural damage or injuries from the latest events
- A 6.1-magnitude earthquake in Turkey caused a dozen buildings to collapse and trapped residents, while a 3.5-magnitude tremor in Wyoming produced no reported harm, illustrating varied regional impacts
