The epicentre of the tremors was Dhundalwadi village in Dahanu, said Vivekanand Kadam, chief of Palghar district disaster cell.
The first tremor, measuring 3.2 magnitude, was felt on Friday at 12.26pm. The same night, around 9.55pm, another mild tremor, measuring 3.4 magnitude, was recorded by the administration.
