Dang! Missed it!

If I had only checked in fifteen minutes earlier, the big blue square at the bottom of the map would have been bright red. A 7.2 magnitude quake hit somewhere in northern Mexico (the accuracy of the location was described as “poor”). But at least it didn’t affect California, since we have built a really big fence to keep aliens out, which presumably keeps other invasions at bay.
Due diligence turned up an earlier version of the map that shows the earthquake in brilliant red. That’s more like it! Big red earthquakes are cool.
