Overview
- A magnitude near 3.5 quake, recorded at 2:06 p.m. during Monday's statewide earthquake drill in Baja California, drew light reports in Tecate with no damage, with USGS placing the epicenter near Barret Lake, California and state data locating it about 13 km north of Tecate.
- Tijuana's city hall drill moved 1,100 people out in 4 minutes 10 seconds, and officials said recent structural reviews called for routine maintenance and reducing heavy paper archives to cut building load.
- In Mexicali, the municipal palace evacuation finished in 3 minutes 18 seconds as 350 internal brigade members led the exercise in a coordinated drill across the state's seven municipalities.
- Mexico's national seismic service reported three morning quakes on Tuesday — magnitude 4.0 in Oaxaca at 7:25, 4.1 in Chiapas at 8:44, and 4.5 in Michoacán at 9:13 — none strong enough to trigger the capital's alert.
- Peru's geophysical institute confirmed a magnitude 3.6 near Canta on April 5 and later logged a 3.8 near Puquio in Ayacucho, with no reported damage, as authorities again urged families to keep emergency kits and clear home plans.
