Earthquake season?
I've just read a report of a +/- 7.2 'quake in Baja California, only one dead as it stands but a hundred or so injured. Shocks were felt as far away as LA and Phoenix.
A lot of high magnitude 'quakes this year.  Wonder if this sort of thing happens relatively often or whether it's just because detection and reporting has gotten better.EDIT: Death toll is two now. Still low considering the magnitude.

Thats probably because the quake actually originated in Mexico and news is a little slow to come out of there.
