On June 24, 2022 at 22:30 UTC, a magnitude 3.4 shallow crustal earthquake struck 15km WNW of Progreso, B.C., MX, at a depth of 11.2 km and coordinates 32.6442°, -115.7247°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.4 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 2.0 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 138 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
