A strong, 6.2-magnitude earthquake struck in the North Pacific Ocean near Costa Rica on Saturday, according to the United States Geological Survey.<\/p>\n

The temblor happened at 1:43 p.m. Eastern about 25 miles northwest of Tamarindo, Costa Rica, data from the agency shows.<\/p>\n

As seismologists review available data, they may revise the earthquake’s reported magnitude. Additional information collected about the earthquake may also prompt U.S.G.S. scientists to update the shake-severity map.<\/p>\n

Aftershocks in the region<\/h2>\n

An aftershock is usually a smaller earthquake that follows a larger one in the same general area. Aftershocks are typically minor adjustments along the portion of a fault that slipped at the time of the initial earthquake.<\/p>\n

Aftershocks can occur days, weeks or even years after the first earthquake. These events can be of equal or larger magnitude to the initial earthquake, and they can continue to affect already damaged locations.<\/p>\n

Source: United States Geological Survey | Notes: Shaking categories are based on the Modified Mercalli Intensity<\/a> scale. When aftershock data is available, the corresponding maps and charts include earthquakes within 100 miles and seven days of the initial quake. All times above are Eastern. Shake data is as of Saturday, Oct. 12 at 2:26 p.m. Eastern. Aftershocks data is as of Saturday, Oct. 12 at 11:44 p.m. Eastern.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
