The tremor was recorded early morning on Saturday, December 31st, 2022, at 4:12 am local time, at a very shallow depth of 1.6 miles below the surface. The event was filed by the United States Geological Survey, the first seismological agency to report it. A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 4.2 earthquake as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 4.4. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Borrego Springs (pop. 3,400) located 10 miles from the epicenter, La Quinta (pop. 40,500) 19 miles away, Palm Desert (pop. 51,900) 22 miles away, Coachella (pop. 44,600) 23 miles away, Rancho Mirage (pop. 18,100) 24 miles away, Indian Wells (pop. 87,500) 24 miles away, and Cathedral City (pop. 53,800) 27 miles away. Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Palm Springs (pop. 47,400) located 31 miles from the epicenter, and Escondido (pop. 151,500) 45 miles away.
