Significant 5.2 quake hits near San Fernando, La Union, Ilocos, Philippines

A shallow magnitude 5.2 earthquake was reported in the morning near San Fernando, La Union, Ilocos, Philippines.
According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the quake hit on Saturday, May 24th, 2025, at 10:36 am local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency which listed the quake at magnitude 5.1. Other agencies reporting the same quake include France’s Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) at magnitude 5.0, the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 5.2, and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.2.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should have been widely felt by almost everyone in the area of the epicenter. It might have caused light to moderate damage.
Moderate shaking probably occurred in San Fernando (pop. 83,000) located 9 km from the epicenter.
In Bauang (pop. 17,100) located 17 km from the epicenter, Tagudin (pop. 35,800) 30 km away, Santa Maria (pop. 28,000) 31 km
