It was raining for hours in Vizcaino this afternoon and we had a very light sprinkling here in Asuncion...ready for more tonight...maybe. the plants could use a nice watering!

BajaBlanca - 12-3-2014 at 12:05 PM

not a single drop here in La Bocana but plenty of clouds in the sky.

Lots of rain in Punta Banda. Started at 4:45 this AM

we had a glorious gentle rain much of last night...damp ground, happy plants and clean cars! Looks like we are done with precipitation today and it is partly sunny now.

Comin' down like a cow peein' on a flat rock at this very moment.

Raining again here in BCS, lightly. Woke up to cloudy skies and warm temps. The cloudiest winter in a while altho not much rain. Sorry Dennis, couldn't find your original post? It's all good. Tio

Raining throughout the day in LB and steady light rain since late afternoon. Expecting big wind from the SW due to a Pacific low around midnight tomorrow, so battening our fold-up structures down tomorrow! Cloudiest, rainiest season in past 5.

bajajudy - 1-25-2015 at 11:29 AM

It has been drizzling here for 24 hours. Nothing serious.
Cool(64) and cloudy. No wind

windgrrl - 1-25-2015 at 06:14 PM

Steady light rain began again around 5 p.m. The desert smells wonderful. Overnight wind forecast significantly downgraded.

bajajudy - 1-25-2015 at 07:19 PM

Still drizzling here
Never got above 65.
Still no wind.

shari - 1-25-2015 at 07:22 PM

hmmm...looks like it might miss us from the satellite photo...maybe going inland a bit like the hurricanes but the sky was sure dark to the south at sunset. It was a glorious sunny, hot day today here in la la land...Asuncion!

shari - 1-26-2015 at 07:07 AM

I guess this year we cant say it never rains in Asuncion...it rained pretty hard last night and looks very ominous at dawn this morning and is blowing about 15-18 from the East...the fishermen are bummed...no laundry today!

windgrrl - 1-30-2015 at 03:10 PM

Steady rain in LB started a 1/2 hour ago.

tiotomasbcs - 1-30-2015 at 04:01 PM

Cloudy with big winds on Wed and Thursday. Today, Friday, rain has moved in here in Peskys ; steady rain, more than the normal "equipatas". Maybe 2 hrs. Mountains covered in gray and dark out over the Pacific to NW. Buena lluvia.:coolup: Tio

It rained much of the afternoon and evening yesterday in GN, then cleared up this morning for our wonderful whale watch at Ojo de Liebre then rained again in the afternoon complete with lightening and thunder!!! Fantastic clouds all day...pics later as I just got home

dtbushpilot - 1-30-2015 at 06:23 PM

Drove down yesterday and today. rained yesterday from south of Catavina to Guerro Negro, rained off and on today, rained hard in La Paz around 3:00.

Hook - 1-31-2015 at 01:59 AM

Rain has continued to pound us overnight, along with some vivid lightning displays. There were a couple periods where it had to be raining 2 inches per hour. Those lasted for 15-30 minutes. I expect to see some significant flooding tomorrow.

This is easily the wettest winter storm since I have lived here. Very unusual to have a southern fed storm, this time of year.

Hook - 1-31-2015 at 02:49 AM

Yet another pummeling going on. It's too loud to sleep in this rain.

We have to be approaching a total of 2 inches in the last 18 hours or so.

monoloco - 1-31-2015 at 06:56 AM

We've had about 1/4" of rain here in Pescadero since yesterday. Lot's of lightning and thunder this morning around 3AM.

shari - 1-31-2015 at 08:59 AM

I woke up to rain pre dawn this morning...crazy!

Last night's sunset was a stormy stunner!

windgrrl - 1-31-2015 at 05:14 PM

The rain cleared up in time to make the evening dog walk yesterday, then poured around 3 a.m. followed by a pre-dawn lightening show. Rain cleared up again for the morning walk, a rainbow and then we had a huge downpour at noon today. a few photos from the a.m. walk looking south to La Ribera and then north:

tiotomasbcs - 1-31-2015 at 05:37 PM

Beautiful pictures Windgirl! Smoooth water and cloudy. Same Rainbow about 9am? touching the hills and going down over the ocean. Lightning/thunderstorm was awesome! Then a rain cell came in and it poured heavily for a half hour. Very tropical. The medio ambiente is loving it as well u:cool:s us short time dwellers! Enjoy all. Tio

BajaGringo - 1-31-2015 at 07:28 PM

We got a lot of rain out here at La Chorera the last few days and a half inch just last night. Today it rained for most of the morning but it appears the storm is now moving on.

Going to be an incredible show of wildflowers out here come this spring...

Hook - 2-1-2015 at 07:00 AM

Yet another cloudburst just now, after 24 hours of stoppage.

This is the single biggest winter rain period that anyone can remember, over here. We just don't get moisture from the south in winter.

Or didn't, anyway.

Rain in Baja? Rainfall Records ?

jaymtb - 2-1-2015 at 01:48 PM

Is there any place where one can look up rainfall history for parts of Baja?
Thanks,
Jay

Thank you! The rainbow I saw was just after 8 a.m., but now I know where the pot of gold was!

A nice day sailing yesterday and light rain again late this afternoon following a thundershower from the west. The vegetable garden is loving this weather.
