Was it felt in San Luis, AZ?
The largest nearby quake this month, M2.7 at 60 km, was probably too small or too distant to notice in San Luis, AZ by a rough rule of thumb (an M3 is typically noticed within a few tens of km, an M5 up to a few hundred km; local ground and building type matter a lot).
None of the quakes listed has "Did You Feel It?" reports in the USGS feed, which usually means shaking at the surface was weak or the area has few reporters.
If you felt shaking, you can report it to USGS; reports refine the intensity map within minutes.
Tsunami warning status
1 earthquake near San Luis, AZ in the past year carried the USGS tsunami flag: M4.2 6 km NW of Delta, B.C., MX (Feb 11, 2026). The flag means the quake was large enough and in an oceanic region where tsunami warning centres issue messages; it does not mean a tsunami happened.
Official tsunami warnings come from the NOAA tsunami warning centres (tsunami.gov) and national agencies; follow local authorities if you are on a coast after strong shaking.
