The 62 AD earthquake in Pompeii is attributed to the tectonic activity in the region, which is situated near the boundary of the African and Eurasian tectonic plates. This seismic event resulted from the movement and stress along faults in the earth's crust. The earthquake caused significant damage to structures in Pompeii and surrounding areas, highlighting the vulnerability of the region to geological hazards. Additionally, it served as a precursor to the more catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

The earthquake that hit Pompeii occurred in 62 AD. It caused significant damage to the city, but it was the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD that ultimately buried Pompeii in volcanic ash and pumice, preserving it for centuries.
There was a very severe earthquake in the bay of Naples which particularly effected Pompeii. A considerable amount of damage was done to the town and when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD a lot of the damaged buildings were still to be repaired.
The people of Pompeii had at least six weeks to two months warning that something was about to happen. That's why so many of them escaped. There were earth tremors and the water supply was diminishing. Pompeii had suffered an earthquake previously and was, in fact, still repairing the damage from it when Vesuvius erupted. The smart ones were able to read the signs and get out along with many of their possessions.The people of Pompeii had at least six weeks to two months warning that something was about to happen.

After being badly damaged by an earthquake in 63 AD, Pompeii was completely buried in 79 AD when Mount Vesuvius erupted.
There was plenty of warnings that Mt. Vesuvius would erupt. That's why so many people actually escaped. There were earth tremors and small quakes for weeks before and the water sources were drying up. The smart ones read the signs and got out.
