This morning, neighbors in Miramar and parts of southern Mar del Plata experienced noticeable tremors attributed to a seismic event that occurred approximately 200 kilometers off the coast. According to reports from the National Institute of Seismic Prevention, the quake registered a magnitude of 4.9 on the Richter scale, particularly affecting buildings of height where residents reported tremors shaking windows and hanging fixtures. As the news of the seismic activity began circulating, many residents took to social media to share their experiences, highlighting the surprising nature of the event. The phenomenon was primarily felt in taller structures, where the shaking was more perceptible, leaving many locals startled by this unusual occurrence. This tremor adds to the ongoing discussions in Argentina about seismic activity in the region, an area not widely known for significant earthquakes, raising awareness about potential geological risks. Overall, this seismic event, while not devastating, serves as a reminder of the geological dynamics of the region and the importance of building preparedness among residents, especially in coastal communities near tectonic boundaries.
