San Ramon, CA – A magnitude 3.2 earthquake struck early Thursday morning about 4 kilometers southeast of San Ramon, rattling parts of the East Bay shortly after 7:27 a.m. local time, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
According to the California Integrated Seismic Network, the quake originated at a depth of approximately 9.2 kilometers and was reviewed by regional seismologists. Reports submitted through the USGS “Did You Feel It?” portal indicate light shaking (Intensity III) felt across communities in San Ramon, Danville, and Dublin, with some residents in Pleasanton and Livermore also noting mild tremors.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or structural damage, and the quake is considered minor by seismic standards. However, small aftershocks are possible as the area remains seismically active due to the Calaveras Fault Zone, which runs through the East Bay region.
Experts advise residents to review emergency plans and ensure earthquake kits are stocked, as even small quakes can serve as reminders of the region’s ongoing seismic risk.
