The western coast of Mexico had been shaken up by a 7.6 magnitude earthquake on Monday. 

There was no immediate damage from the earthquake reported when it hit at around 1:05 p.m. local time. However, a wall inside a mall collapsed in Manzanillo, Colima, killing one person. That person is the only casualty listed so far, with President Manuel Lopez Obrador announcing the news, according to USA Today.

Tsunami Warnings for Mexico and the Damage the 7.6 Magnitude Earthquake Brought

A tsunami warning has been placed along parts of the Mexican Pacific coastline within 200 miles of the epicenter.

Weather.com also reported that the U.S. Tsunami Warning Center stated that there was no threat to the U.S. West Coast, including California. There was also no tsunami warning for Hawaii.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported the epicenter to be around 23 miles southeast of Aquila, near the border between Colima and Michoacan. It had a depth of about 9.4 miles. There are reports of damaged buildings within or near the epicenter, though no immediate reports of injuries around the area, according to the Associated Press.

Much of the damage was reported around Coalcoman, with the town's hospital being seriously damaged. The roof of a parking area also collapsed while a hotel and some homes showed cracks, with some houses having portions of their facade and roofing breaking off.

The earthquake was also felt around nearby Michoacan state. However, its Public Security department announced that there were no immediate reports of significant damage in the state aside from a few reported cracks in buildings.

However, there were actual fears that a tsunami would hit, especially in coastal Coahuayana, near the border with Colima. In the end, though, as one resident put it, "everything is fine."

Over at the capital of Mexico, Mexico City, Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum also reported to residents that there were no reports of damage within the capital.

Three Major Earthquakes in Mexico Through the Years Happened on September 19

The recent major earthquake happened on the 19th of September, which is now a peculiar date for Mexico. In 1985, a magnitude 8 earthquake hit Guerrero state, killing 9,500 people. In 2017, on the exact same date, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Mexico and killed around 360 people.

However, seismologists have stated that this is merely a coincidence. According to U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Paul Earle, there is "no physical reason or statistical bias toward earthquakes in any given month in Mexico." The scientist also pointed out that there is also no season or month for big earthquakes around the world. However, he did acknowledge that people seek and find coincidences that look like patterns.

Earle also stated that this latest September 19th quake was not related to or caused by the drill, nor was it connected to a "damaging temblor in Taiwan."
