Reactions quickly poured in across social media. “That was the biggest earthquake I’ve felt since moving to San Diego,” one person wrote.
Another added, “Haven’t ever experienced an earthquake. but i lived around sinkholes and i just grabbed my son and ran for the door in my boxers. Heart in my a**.”
NBC released several video clips showing the terrifying moments. One showed a mother rushing to protect her baby, while another captured a cat frozen in fear as the house trembled around it.
Aftershocks followed soon after, including one that registered a magnitude of 3.9. In response, the California Department of Transportation shared photos of large boulders that had tumbled onto State Route 76 near E Grade Road and warned travelers of potential hazards.
Governor Gavin Newsom has been briefed on the situation. “The state is coordinating with local authorities to assess any damage and if emergency response is needed,” officials stated.
San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria also shared an update on X:
“San Diego experienced a strong earthquake centered near Julian. There’s no known visible or major damage to the city so far and I’m in communication with local, state, and federal officials.”
