Citizens report that the earthquake was felt in Mérida
Through social networks, some users have commented that they managed to perceive the tremor in the Yucatecan capital. It was through the group ” Mérida en el tiempo, Yucatán en la historia “, where a user reported having felt the earthquake at the same time but in this city.
His report was followed by other comments that similarly claimed to have had the perception of the earthquake at the approximate time. It should be noted that at the moment there is no official information on the perception of the tremor in Yucatan , however, it would not be the first time that a phenomenon of this type has been felt very slightly in our State.
At the same time, the Sky Alert alert system reported on its Twitter account that the earthquake was perceived even in Villahermosa, Tabasco, although with very slight intensity.
