There apparently was a 6.5 magnitude earthquake last night at 19:47 CT just south of Mexico City, during which a few people were killed. The epicenter was in the state of Guerrero near Iguala, and was felt in Alculpulco.
If you zoom the map here out just a bit, you will see that that is quite far away from San Cristobal and Chiapas. We felt nothing here. The blue line is not the route I took to get here, either. Note how Oaxaca (where I was last week) and Puerto Escondido (where I was last month) are almost exactly in the middle of the two places, in the south.

If you zoom out just a bit more, you'll see where I am headed next week: Cancun in the Yucatan to the northeast: that's that big bump sticking out into the Caribbean. That's where I'm flying home from.
I hope that disambiguates the geography down here. I should have posted a map a while ago, sorry.
