🌊🚨 **Tsunami Alert in Central America** 🚨🌊
Heart-stopping scenes in Central America as a massive 7.4 magnitude earthquake hits Guatemala, triggering a tsunami alert! 🌍 People are dashing for safety and evacuating buildings as tremors are felt across the region. The quake struck near Puerto Madero, a coastal town in Mexico, just a stone’s throw from the Guatemalan border.
Though there’s currently no visible damage from initial reports, the ground shook violently enough to send folks running into the streets. 🏃♂️ Concerns are high, as the US Geological Survey warns of potential liquefaction, where solid ground can turn to liquid—a critical threat during seismic events.
Local media reports brave office workers and government staff were seen scrambling out of buildings as safety protocols kicked in. It wasn’t just Guatemala feeling the impact; the tremor reached as far as El Salvador. 🌎
Social media is buzzing with eyewitness accounts. Salomón Jara, governor of Mexico’s Oaxaca state, noted the quake’s moderate intensity there too, while thankfully, no major damage was reported for now.
Stay tuned and stay safe, everyone! 🌐 Keep your eyes peeled for updates as more information comes in. 🙏 #Earthquake #TsunamiAlert #CentralAmerica #StaySafe
