A powerful earthquake struck San Diego on Monday around 10 a.m. PT. Initially measured at 6.7 magnitude, the US Geological Survey later reported it as between 5.2 and 6. The quake was felt across Southern California, including Los Angeles.

Residents received emergency alerts: “Hold on, cover, and drop.” Videos captured homes shaking, light fixtures swaying, and TVs and PCs jolting. “I just hear like consecutive three to four different bursts and pops of different bottles,” said a man at Julian’s Mountain Spirits Liquor. One woman grabbed her baby and ran; a terrified cat watched its home tremble.

The epicenter was 2.49 miles south of Julian. At least seven aftershocks followed, one reaching 3.9. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department reported no immediate injuries or major damage.

Rocks fell on State Route 76, prompting driver warnings. Capt. Thomas Shoots of Cal Fire said, “There was a lot of shaking and rattling around, but thankfully everything seems to be back to normal.”

Governor Gavin Newsom’s office stated the state is “coordinating with local authorities.” Mayor Todd Gloria posted, “No known visible or major damage to the city so far.” San Diego State University confirmed no injuries, and classes remained in session.
