Country overviewOn July 29, 2025 at 17:07 UTC, a magnitude M1.4 earthquake occurred near 25 km SSE of Ocotillo, CA (Mexico). The hypocenter lay relatively close to the surface at around 10 km, increasing how strongly it was felt. Earthquakes of this small magnitude are usually barely noticeable and cause no damage.
The data is provided by USGS and cross-checked across seismological networks. Mexico: over the past 24 hours, QuakeMap24 logged 2 earthquakes, the strongest at M4.2.
Shallow quakes release energy near the surface — shaking is felt more strongly and damage potential is higher.
