So far, we have received 30 reports for this quake from Mexico. Out of these, 29 people indicated they felt it. The quake was reported to have been felt in up to approx. 150–250 km (93–155 mi) distance, with isolated cases to have felt the quake even 267 km (166 mi) away.The majority of reports came from Guadalajara (3 reports), a city of 1.4 million people in Estado de Jalisco in 247 km (154 mi) distance northeast of the epicenter, Mexico, Uruapan (2 reports), a city with more than 300,000 inhabitants in Estado de Michoacan de Ocampo in 263 km (164 mi) distance east of the epicenter, and Cerro de Ortega (1 report) (77 km or 48 mi to the east) in Estado de Colima.

It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)I: Not felt1230–230 km (143–143 mi)230 km (143 mi)II: Very weak shaking662–263 km (39–163 mi)143 km (89 mi)III: Weak shaking1426–267 km (16–166 mi)130 km (81 mi)IV: Light shaking898–250 km (61–155 mi)151 km (94 mi)V: Moderate shaking146–46 km (29–29 mi)46 km (29 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (30 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 6 km2 (2 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 4 km (3 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Oct 1, 2026 11:53 pm (GMT -7)18 minutes ago - felt4.810 km0 km - This quakeNorth Pacific Ocean, 47 km S of Manzanillo, Estado de Colima, MexicoMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 771 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 7 or higher: 0.03 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 31.3 years)Mag. 6 or higher: 0.18 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 5.5 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.97 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 23.7 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 717 quakes per year (or 60 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 771 quakes per year (or 64 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 4 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 30 to 35 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
