USGS reports that a magnitude 4.3 quake hit northern Baja California at 8:38 am local time this morning but there have been only limited reports of it being felt in the region. It was about 75-80 km southwest of Yuma, Arizona and occurred in an area of seismicity associated with the rift and transform faults opening the Gulf of California.
