Background:

Volcán Popocatépetl, whose name is the Aztec word for smoking mountain, towers to 5426 m 70 km SE of Mexico City to form North America’s 2nd-highest volcano.  The glacier-clad stratovolcano contains a steep-walled, 250-450 m deep crater.  The generally symmetrical volcano is modified by the sharp-peaked Ventorrillo on the NW, a remnant of an earlier volcano. 
At least three previous major cones were destroyed by gravitational failure during the Pleistocene, producing massive debris-avalanche deposits covering broad areas south of the volcano.  The modern volcano was constructed to the south of the late-Pleistocene to Holocene El Fraile cone.  Three major plinian eruptions, the most recent of which took place about 800 AD, have occurred from Popocatépetl since the mid Holocene, accompanied by pyroclastic flows and voluminous lahars that swept basins below the volcano.  Frequent historical eruptions, first recorded in Aztec codices, have occurred since precolumbian

Moderate magnitude 4.3 earthquake at 24 km depth

13 May 12:44 UTC: First to report: USGS after 33 minutes.

Update Tue, 13 May 2025, 12:45

Moderate magnitude 4.3 earthquake 24 miles southwest of Akhiok, Alaska, United StatesA magnitude 4.3 earthquake near Akhiok, Kodiak Island, Alaska, USA, was reported 33 minutes ago by the United States Geological Survey, considered the key international and national agency that monitors seismic activity in the US. The earthquake occurred at a shallow depth of 15 miles beneath the epicenter early morning on Tuesday, May 13th, 2025, at 4:12 am local time. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change in the coming hours as the agency continues to process seismic data.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.3 as well.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Akhiok (pop. 72) located 24 miles from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Karluk (pop. 37) located 54 miles from the epicenter, Larsen Bay (pop. 88) 59 miles away, and Old Harbor (pop. 220) 61 miles
