I use the USGS near real-time Google Earth KMZ (on my desktop) to check daily in 3-D.

Here's a screen snapshot this morning. Right where's supposed to be on the fault line (jagged line), closer to Santa Rosalia than Mulege.

Thanks, David. Here's another.
All quakes, North America, during past 7 days, continually updated.
Color denotes age (0-7 days).
Size denotes magnitude (1-6 or greater)
Tectonic plates are shown. You can see that movement at one location COULD clearly affect another location.
Note plate movement speed & direction.
If you do the math, Bahia de los Angeles will be a suburb of Las Vegas in exactly 42,187,501 years.
That will be a great time to sell your BOLA real estate.
I haven't yet worked out the price escalation based on inflation. :lol:
