Residents in Yuma, Arizona, were startled early Wednesday morning as tremors from a 4.6 magnitude earthquake in northern Mexico reverberated through the region. The earthquake, which struck just before 5 a.m. south of Mexicali in Baja California, was felt in southwestern Arizona, according to the US Geological Survey.
The USGS report indicated that residents near Yuma may have experienced the effects of the earthquake, highlighting the proximity of the region to the seismic activity in Mexico. This event follows a similar occurrence in May, when a separate earthquake was detected in the same area.
