Since 1970, 11 other earthquakes of magnitude 6.5 or larger have occurred within 250 km (155 mi) of the July 27, 2022, earthquake. The largest of these earthquakes was a magnitude 7.7 strike-slip earthquake on July 16, 1990, located approximately 215 km (134 mi) south of the July 27 earthquake. At least 1,600 people died and more than 3,000 ...
On 19 September 2022, a moment magnitude 7.6-7.7 earthquake struck between the Mexican states of Michoacán and Colima at 13:05:06 local time. [1] [4] The earthquake had a depth of 26.9 km (16.7 mi), [1] resulting in a maximum intensity of VIII ( Severe) on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale. The USGS reported the epicentre was 35 km (22 mi ...
