According to the National Geographic Institute (IGN), the province of Granada experienced a small seismic swarm between 03:32h and 04:58h, with slight tremors felt where they occurred.

The first earth tremor struck Otívar at 03:32h with its epicentre 40 kilometres deep and a magnitude of 2.5 on the Richter scale.

Just over twenty minutes later, the second tremor was recorded at 03:54h in the village of Cacín (western Granada) with a magnitude of 2.3 and at a depth of 18 kilometres.

Finally, the third one took place out to sea in front of Castell de Ferro at 04.58h hours at a depth of 34 kilometres and a magnitude of 1.6 on the Richter Scale.

Now, with the heavens kicking up a din, it’s quite likely that the rumblings underfoot went almost unperceived. Let us know, though, if you did feel it.
