The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) has reported that a magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck Bagamanoc town in Catanduanes early Wednesday morning, where aftershocks would be expected. East of Bagamoc in Catanduanes is where the epicenter of the tectonic earthquake was located, which struck at 5:19 a.m., said Phivolcs in its earthquake bulletin. The earthquake also had a depth of 38 kilometers. Intensity I was raised by state seismologists in Irosin, Sorsogon. A reported intensity is the strength of an earthquake as felt and reported by people, according to Phivolcs, while instrumental intensity is measured by an intensity meter or scale. No damage is expected from the earthquake. Several local governments in Cebu suspended face-to-face classes on Monday following the magnitude 5.1 earthquake that hit the province on Sunday.​
 
Grateful to hear no damage is expected from the earthquake in Catanduanes 🙏. It’s always concerning when tremors like this happen, especially with aftershocks expected. Hope everyone stays alert and safe in the coming days! 🌍 We’ve been seeing quite a few quakes lately—nature definitely keeps us on our toes.
 
That's scary! 😨 It's a good thing no damage happened. I've been seeing more news about earthquakes in the Philippines lately, and it's terrifying to see how strong they are. 😥
