Cali’s alive and kicking. Well, Baja California at least. The 7.2 near Mexicali rattled my place yesterday. I lazily sat in my chair, enjoying a beer, deciding if it was something important enough to move myself for. After a few seconds, I concluded, begrudgingly, that yes – I might want to move outside. So I grabbed my beer and stood in the street. I was the only one in the street, but I enjoyed much vulgarity being shouted from neighboring units. There’s been a few small aftershocks that I’ve felt, including one this morning around 6:30am.
Here’s the fun part in the post, however. I usually keep up on all the planet’s 2.5+ earthquakes via an rss feed. If I don’t look at it for a couple of days, there’s usually a few dozen earthquakes. This morning, there were over 400! Thank God for the ‘mark all as read’ button. To see an earthquake map with ‘normal’ amounts of activity, check out the post I did right after a tsunami.
This is actually two maps merged together - but you get the idea. Lots of quakes.
