On October 25, 2026 at 13:22 UTC, a magnitude 4.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck 7 km NNW of Agua Caliente Grande (De Gastélum), Mexico, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 26.6022°, -108.3744°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 15 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 347 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
