The earthquakes reported felt:
# 1: 6.3 quake: 12 Km SE From Tongoy (Chile), 6 Sep 2020 01h16 – 37 reports
Strong ground tremors occurred in areas up to 50 km away from the epicenter, but slight to weak tremors could be felt over a vast area up to several hundred kilometers away.
There are no reports of injuries or major damage, mainly due to the fact that there are no towns in the immediate vicinity of the earthquake.
A similar but stronger magnitude 7 earthquake had occurred 5 days earlier, 266 kilometers to the north. It could be that earthquakes are currently propagating south along the Pacific – South America tectonic plate margin.
# 2: earthquake 6.2: Vanuatu Islands, September 6, 2020 02h59 – 9 reports
# 3: 3.8 earthquake: 5 km SSE of Santa Ynez, CA (USA), September 6, 2020 01h48 – 6 reports
