Looks like it was off the west coast of far south Mexico near the Guatemala border.

Saying that a quake was magnitude 8 is almost like saying take this ship to “ludicrous speed”. Prayers for everyone excepting the reptile caudillos running the country.

Believe it or not, I’ve been predicting that a big one on the Mexico coast would be the next big one.
Deeper than expected (30 miles).

Just waiting for the Global Warming idiots to blame the earthquake and hurricane on the Climate Change hoax

In Pacific Ocean at Depth of 35 Kilometers - should be too deep for tsunami...

Depth 21 miles. That seems unusual.

Maybe they were trying to hit Mar a Lago. Their guidance technology still needs some work.
