Almost all of these earthquakes started as soon as Rick's flight landed in California today !  :o   He was oblivious to them all so that's good, I guess.  ::)

Four earthquakes hit Mexico's Gulf of California
Posted: 03:42 PM ET

(CNN) — Four earthquakes — with magnitudes of 5.8, 6.9, 5.0 and 5.9 respectively — struck nearly next to each other in the Gulf of California, between the western Mexican states of Baja California and Sonora, the U.S. Geological Survey reported. There were no immediate reports of damage.

Two earthquakes hit within minutes of each other, just before 11 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time (2 p.m. ET). A third one hit about 30 minutes later and a fourth 10 minutes after that.

All four quakes occurred at a depth of about 6 miles, the USGS reported.
