If someone is wondering, we just had an 8.1 earthquake here in Mexico. A strong one indeed; until now there are no big damages to buildings and the most common thing is lack of electricity in some communities and a tsunami alert in some zones.
But all of our twitter and Facebook is filled with memes and funny relatable texts. We are always like that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Update (no one sees the reblog with it): official sources say it was 8.4
Update 2 [!]: The deaths are reported to be 26. (September 8, 7:26 am) (this update can change the number if necessary)
Update 3: Telling by people’s reports on Twitter, Chiapas seems to be the most affected with some buildings collapsed or partially destroyed. Some damages in the Mexico City international airport have been reported as well
Update 4: Classes have been suspended today Sept 8 in 11 states (Update) The IPN, UNAM (for today) and the ITESM (until new notice-mostly today-) have officially suspended classes; other universities are starting to reach out to their alumni. Since it’s exam season, try to locate your teachers to see if they know when will the exam will be reprogrammed. If you are already on your way to school, be careful and find a institution representative or check your school’s social media to confirm any labor suspension
Update 5: Not earthquake related but hurricane Katia will arrive to Veracruz between today’s night and Saturday morning. Beware of big and strong waves in the zone and rain mostly in the middle of the country.
