Just a thought: does anyone if the Sea of Cortez is capable of a tsunami or is it not "wide" enough...certainly is deep enough. And I guess if it
COULD cause one, you'd have about...oh...say...ten seconds to get to higher ground?

The linked page also shows there was a 3.9 in just about the same spot on Saturday 3/19 as well.

Hmmm....We had 3 separate shakers here in Coyote Bay..rattled us good.. and all of my neighbors windows, too. A few of us went outside to inspect any
damage. I think I got a fresh crack in my firepit.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Bob, go to the top of your lighthouse and see if you feel them up there.

Pompano. What do you use your discarded Jack Daniels bottles for when empty. Wind Chimes? Storing shells collected from the beach? Target practice
with sling shots? (no guns allowed. Right?) ????? Do you need a replacement?????/ lol\ Should we bring one down when we come through next trip????
Or would you settle for a The Singleton Single Malt Scotch?? Not quite as good as Glen(whatever) but then for an $80.00 scotch it should be good
(Glenwhatever) Ever dip your bait in Jack Daniels before casting out?

I felt one last night, about 1 or 2 in the morning. It only lasted about 5 seconds. Not a big one.

Phil..I confess that it's time to put to rest this idea that I drink a lot of booze. I'm actually a tee-totaler, as anyone in Mulege can tell you.
But for the sake of Nomad's adoration to the stuff, I have in the past presented a personna of being an imbiber.. nothing could be farther from the
truth. So help me G...

Tsunamis are cause by large, quick displacements of water. The fault running up the center is a sliding fault, not a subduction fault, so a Tsunami
formed in the SOC would have to be caused by an underwater landslide.
