The breakdown:
Mag 5.0 or greater: 2 quakes
Mag 4.0 - 4.9: 10 quakes
Mag 3.0 - 3.9: 9 quakes
(The Mexican site doesn't usually post quakes below 3.0, and the USGS doesn't post less than 4.0 outside the US.)
A very unusual quake cluster for our area. Fortunately these were all fairly minor and quite a distance from any towns.
Check out the map on the Mexican site; it looks like someone was taking target practice on that unfortunate spot on the sea bed: ("Whoa-whoa-whoa, good shoot'n, Tex!")
