What we know so far • A 7.4 magnitude earthquake was recorded Monday in western Colombia, according to the US Geological Survey.
• The epicenter was located in San José del Palmar, in the department of Chocó, about 280 kilometers (or about 173 miles) west of Bogotá. The tremor was felt strongly in the nation’s capital — alarms sounded, and in many buildings people evacuated to the streets as a precaution.

Check out the depth. 107 KM. Jeez...
Nope, 110 KM...
Per the above...
M 7.4 - 5 km S of San José del Palmar, Colombia
2026-08-10 12:34:28 (UTC)4.844°N 76.242°W110.3 km depth
If the damage is far less than would be expected, bet it’s mostly to do with the depth.
The video on the CNN site of a four-story apartment building collapsing is heartbreaking.
So far looks like only one aftershock, per USGS...
M 5.0 - 16 km W of San José del Palmar, Colombia
2026-08-10 13:18:10 (UTC)4.897°N 76.386°W98.5 km depth
That thing shook for a while. I’ve seen some sad footage.
Cal-Fire website still says Bug Fire at 15,000. Where did you get your info?
