Overview
- Preliminary reports placed the early tremor at around magnitude 5 near Santa Rosalía, with outlets citing times between 06:04 and 06:16 local central time.
- The National Seismological Service later logged a magnitude 4.9 located 69 km southwest of Miguel Alemán at 06:59:33 and a magnitude 4.2 near Santa Rosalía seconds earlier.
- Municipal civil protection teams in Guaymas conducted initial inspections and reported no material damage after public reports of shaking.
- Residents reported feeling the movement in coastal communities including Guaymas, Empalme, Miguel Alemán and Bahía de Kino, sharing accounts on social media.
- The shaking did not prompt Mexico’s SASMEX alert in central and southern cities because its sensor network focuses on subduction zones outside this region.
