M5.2 Earthquake Near 62 km SW of San Antonio, Chile Draws 2 Felt Reports
USGS Week reports M5.2 near 62 km SW of San Antonio, Chile, with a 29.1 km catalog depth and 2 felt reports.
The event began at Fri, 25 Sep 2026 15:29:09 GMT. USGS Week reports magnitude 5.2, 29.1 km catalog depth, and coordinates -33.966, -72.108.
The catalog location label is 62 km SW of San Antonio, Chile; no separate nearest-city field was supplied with this solution. By catalog depth, this is a shallow event. The magnitude-derived energy estimate is 3.98e+12 joules, or about 951 tons of TNT equivalent; that calculation describes source energy, not local damage.
2 public felt reports are attached to the current catalog entry. Other attached observation fields include catalog significance score 417. No official casualty or damage statement is attached to the normalized event evidence.
The USGS Week catalog currently marks the solution as reviewed. No station-count, phase-count, residual, gap, or uncertainty fields were supplied in the normalized record. Other agency solutions retained for this same origin are GEOFON GFZ M5.3. These are alternate reported solutions, not additional earthquakes.
The provider record does not carry a tsunami flag at publication time. Magnitude, depth, and location can change as monitoring networks add observations and review the solution.
