The quake's epicenter was located 46 miles north of La Paz, Mexico, and was centered in the Gulf of California, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

"It felt pretty strong," said Ivan Calderon, a Baja California Sur state civil protection official, adding there were no reports of damages or injuries.

"So far there have just been some reports of people panicking, but nothing serious," Calderon said.

He said school was suspended across the state on Wednesday while officials examined sites for damages. Some other public buildings would also be closed Wednesday for checks, he said.

A magnitude 6 earthquake is capable of causing severe damage. Four more tremors, magnitude 4.8 or less, followed the bigger quake, all clustered north of La Paz, the USGS said.

The southern part of Mexico's Baja Peninsula is sparsely populated outside of La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur, and the tourist resort of Los Cabos, 

located about 98 miles to the south.

And from Dutchsinse.....

Past 48 hours of 

earthquakes in the 

continental United States..

Expect further movement along the edge of the craton..

Also.. west coast Americas.... see the obvious 3.0M+ movement across the ENTIRE western edge of the plate.. from Seattle south to Salton Sea, CA.. as far east as the fracking operations in Oklahoma.. including Yellowstone on the NW portion of the craton edge.

Be alert for movement to the north (BC Canada) and to the south (Central America / Mexico).

Also.. possibly consider the SLIGHT (oh so very slight) chance of New Madrid to East Coast movement.
