On March 11, 2026 at 03:28 UTC, a magnitude M4.4 earthquake occurred near Gulf of California. The hypocenter lay relatively close to the surface at around 10 km, increasing how strongly it was felt. Tremors of this size are distinctly felt and can occasionally cause light damage.
The data is provided by GFZ and cross-checked across seismological networks.
Shallow quakes release energy near the surface — shaking is felt more strongly and damage potential is higher.
