Powerful earthquake strikes San Diego – Locals recount scenes of utter chaos.

A 5.2-magnitude earthquake struck near Julian, California, late Monday night, sending tremors across parts of San Diego and reaching as far as Los Angeles, located about 120 miles away. The quake was strong enough to be widely felt, prompting concern among residents throughout Southern California.

Despite the intensity, officials reported no injuries or property damage. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that the region appeared to have avoided serious consequences, offering some relief to those shaken by the unexpected event.

One notable aspect of this earthquake was the early warning system. Residents received a rare alert approximately five seconds before the tremor occurred. Though brief, the advance notice highlights the growing effectiveness of California’s earthquake alert technology, which is designed to give people precious moments to prepare.

Julian, a mountain town in eastern San Diego County, was closest to the epicenter. While quakes in this region are not uncommon, this one stood out due to its magnitude and reach. Reports confirmed that the quake was felt across a wide area, including densely populated Los Angeles.

Authorities have reminded the public to remain prepared for future seismic activity, keeping emergency kits on hand and staying informed through official alert systems. Although no immediate aftershocks were reported, experts continue to monitor the area for potential seismic developments.
