Possible video of ... transformers exploding? -- (link) - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:18 8
- commentator says high tension power cables. -- nm - mafic Sep 7, 19:43 4
  - Yup, I've seen the lines arcing here when we've had a good one. -- nm - Meg Sep 7, 19:57
  - Thanks -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:46 2
    - I mean, it would be neat if it was some kind of geo-magnetic luminescence, but it seemed doubtful -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:47 1
      - huh -- nm - budice Sep 7, 20:03
- Another tweet calls this "earthquake lights", but at least one video showed an actual transformer explosion so ... -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:39
- Wide webcam view showing the power outages (before and after) -- (link) - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:29 1
  - Lots of videos on Twitter, but none so far that show any building collapses - so maybe the damage will be just damage, and not loss of life. I hope. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:36
Downgraded to M7.0, 13km deep - but also possibly located closer to Acapulco -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:15
I was hoping to try and blame it on the Texas fracking but it's a little too far south. -- nm - Meg Sep 7, 19:08 1
- aren't they fracking down there too? what else are they doing with Escobar's cash and cocaine? -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 7, 19:36
Depth of 50km, looks like many miles east of Acapulco -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:07 2
- "Many" in this case actually only means about 20 miles -- nm - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:10
- It even shows up in Google maps -- (pic) - Beryllium Sep 7, 19:09 [Attachment]
