I was waiting for this after we had those mega-flares from the sun. Dutchsinse does a great job of explaining why this happened, why in S. Mexico, and the global implications.
This was the largest quake there in several years, and he mentions a coincidence with the current hurricane on the east coast, as a similarly large quake hit Vancouver Island back when Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of New York/New Jersey.
Also below is a video from MrMBB showing the extraordinary aurora visible much farther south than normal due to all those super-charged particles Dutch mentions following the geomagnetic storm caused by the sun. ~ BP
