A moderate earthquake struck Southern California, centered near Ensenada, Mexico, and was widely felt in San Diego County. The quake, initially reported as a magnitude 4.6, was later downgraded to 4.5 by the U.S. Geological Survey. It occurred at approximately 2:37 p.m. PST and was located about 23 miles southwest of Ensenada. While no immediate reports of major damage or injuries surfaced, the shaking was felt throughout San Diego, with residents reporting light to moderate shaking. Some people described feeling a jolt followed by rolling motion. Authorities confirmed they were assessing the situation for any potential impact. The San Diego County Sheriff's Department and other emergency agencies indicated they had not received any calls regarding significant damage. The proximity of the earthquake to Ensenada suggests that any potential damage would likely be concentrated closer to the epicenter in Mexico. The event serves as a reminder of the region's seismic activity. find the original article here: https://www.yahoo.com/news/earthquake-shakes-san-diego-causing-203804333.html
