Mag. 4.0 earthquake - 2.8 km southeast of Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, on Friday, Feb 23, 2024, at 05:11 pm (Mexico City time) -

A moderate magnitude 4.0 earthquake hit 2.8 km (1.8 mi) away from Cuernavaca, Morelos,  Mexico, in the afternoon of Friday, Feb 23, 2024 at 5.11 pm local time (America/Mexico City GMT -6). The quake had a very shallow depth of 1 km (0.6 mi) and was felt widely in the area. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would.

4.0 quake Morelos, Mexico, Feb 23, 2024 05:11 pm (Mexico City time)
Just 19 minutes ago, a 4.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico. The tremor was recorded in the afternoon on Friday, February 23rd, 2024, at 5:11 pm local time, at a very shallow depth of 5 km below the surface.
The event was filed by Mexico's National Seismological Service (SSN), the first seismological agency to report it.
A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which listed it as a magnitude 4.0 earthquake as well.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Cuernavaca (pop. 338,700) located 3 km from the epicenter, Tres de Mayo (pop. 18,000) 5 km away, Jiutepec (pop. 162,400) 5 km away, Temixco (pop. 97,800) 7 km away, and Emiliano Zapata (pop. 49,200) 8 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Xochitepec (pop. 19,200) located 15 km from the epicenter, Yautepec (pop. 42,700) 15 km away, and Cuautla (pop. 154,400) 31 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Iztapalapa (pop. 1,815,800) located 52 km from the epicenter, and Mexico (pop. 12,294,200) 58 km away.

What is Intensity and the Mercalli Intensity Scale?


The amount of shaking that occurs on the surface due to an earthquake is called the intensity. 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.

Aftershocks for this quake

No aftershocks have been recorded so far. 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 of approx. 1 km2 (=0 sqare miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 2 km (1 mi).

Earthquake statistics

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 54 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 67 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):
  • Mag. 6 or higher: 0.03 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 31.3 years)
  • Mag. 5 or higher: 0.14 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 7 years)
  • Mag. 4 or higher: 1.87 quakes per year
  • Mag. 3 or higher: 40 quakes per year (or 3.4 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 2 or higher: 53 quakes per year (or 4.4 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 1 or higher: 66 quakes per year (or 5.5 quakes per month)
The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 4 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 30 to 35 years.
