Employees took refuge from the earthquake in Mexico City.
First, a severe earthquake shook Mexico - then a tsunami threatened it as well.
Mexican authorities had warned of Pacific waves up to three meters high on the coast of Michoacán.
During the night on Tuesday, however, the residents could breathe a sigh of relief. The municipality said, "We were afraid that the sea would overflow its banks, but in the end, everything is fine." The tsunami warning lifted!
On Monday evening, a quake with a magnitude of 7.6 hit the state in the east of the country. One person was killed.
The tremors were also felt in the neighboring state of Colima and the capital Mexico City - where buildings swayed. According to President Manuel López Obrador (68), there is property damage in Michoacán.
Bizarre coincidence: the earthquake occurred on the same date as Mexico's last two significant quakes. - On September 19, 1985, and 8.1 magnitude quake in Mexico City killed over 10,000 people and destroyed hundreds of buildings. - On Sept. 19, 2017, a 7.1-magnitude quake killed about 370 people, most of them in the capital.
