Strongest earthquake in nearly 150 years hits off Cuba, shakes Mexico, Florida

A rare, strong magnitude-6.1 earthquake struck off northwest Cuba and was felt across western Cuba, Mexico’s Yucatán (Cancún, Tulum, Playa del Carmen) and parts of Florida, prompting evacuations.
Seismologists say it was unusual — a shallow, in-plate quake and the strongest within about 200 miles of the epicenter since 1880.
No tsunami warning or major damage/casualties reported so far, but Cubans are worried because many buildings are in poor condition and blackouts have complicated communications.
