Indio Earthquake Rattles Coachella Valley Over The Weekend: Did You Feel It?

INDIO, CA — A magnitude-3.3 earthquake struck early Sunday near Indio and surrounding areas, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The quake was felt through Southwest Riverside County and down into San Diego, according to USGS Did You Feel It reports.

Just after 1:15 a.m. Sunday morning, a temblor struck with an epicenter about 12 miles from Indio.

People in Desert Hot Springs, Coachella and Palm Desert may have felt a weak rattle, but no significant impacts were reported.

According to the Did You Feel It reporting system, the quake was felt west across the Inland Empire, and as far south as Escondido and Encinitas. Meanwhile, on Monday, the San Ramon area of Northern California has been experiencing an "Indio" style swarm of quakes.

In mid-January, over 200+ quakes rattled the area after a magnitude 4.9 quake struck near Indio. That initial quake triggered the klaxon-blaring of the early earthquake warning alarm. It was quickly followed by a loud rumble, a sharp jolt, jostling frames on walls and setting chandeliers swaying. Hundreds of mini and minor quakes followed.
