The HEAT in Baja?


It has been unusually HOT here in San Diego the last several days. I was wondering if it is also hotter than normal in Baja? Any reports?

It has definitely been hot here. WHEW
We tag team town...one of us stays in the car with the a/c going and the other does what they have to do. The humidity is getting higher as Emilia approaches and although she is not a threat she will come close enough to drive the humidity even higher. Last I looked at the Weather Channel, they say it is 100 but feels like 111 with 42% humidity.
It is 80 in my house with 0% humidity and I am one happy camper. I cant believe that in SC we used to run our A/C's at 72. Seems like a waste. These mini-splits are the way to go and come with my highest recommendation.

Larry

You are giving the temperatures for Comitan, it is hotter in the City of La Paz due to much asphalt, and many buildings that block the breezes.

Ensenada is a good 10 degrees hotter than usual with high humidity -- ditto for the record breaking heat all over Calif Alta. We are expecting relief midweek.

Here in the Great State of Texas-The Panhandle{3500 Ft} it has been unusally Hot for the past week. However 8 miles South of Amarillo at Timber Creek Canyon we do not need the A/C-windows open and Fans-have to pull up some cover about 2 AM.

This heat wave reminds me of the conditions right before Hurricane Lisa Hit La Paz.

I think Skeet has something, if it is hotter then the water will get hotter, those are conditions for spawning Hurricanes.

Comitan:
I recall the conditions prior to "Lisa".
Cattle were dying by the Hundreds in the Mountains, Goats were being shipped out by the Cratefull from Loreto.
The Elder Senior Davis- A very important Person and Holder of many Thousands of Hectares in and Around Loreto and other Ranchers Hired a Private company out of Texas to Seed the Clouds.
The Pilot of the Special Built Cessna 210 few into the Buildup of Clouds over the Mountains and "Seeded" The clouds at 20,000 Feet.Each Day he returned the Mechanics would "Bondo" the leading edge of the Wings for the Next Days Flight{Caused by the Hail he went thru to drop it at the correct time}.
Shortly after this procedure "Lisa" hit and did the Great Damage to La Paz, Villa Constitution and to some degree Loreto!
Rumors where everywhere-That the Ranchers had caused "Lisa to Happen"

Be Aware!

"Sweet. sweet summertime"... well, I guess if you live in Idaho that's true. But we are not used to this type of heat in San Diego, along with the humidity. Otherwise it's a mild summer here year round! Absolutely fantastic climate here!

Thanks for all the responses Nomads.

We have been averaging 116-117 here in Laughlin, Nv. I went to the casinos yesterday. My car temp. said 127.
I was in Cabo in June. It was 95, but high humidity. We have that dry heat here. Ha Ha.

Hot, Hot, Hot


I saw an article in Sunday's Times which referenced the fact that the World is at its warmest for over 100,000 years (when, presumably, gas was 10 cents a gallon and people were leaving their A/Cs and TVs on all night) so we should expect warm temps.

Having moved from the coast to Indio in 1970, I've seen a lot of Hot weather in 36 years and prefer it anyday to COLD weather. Here in YV, the temps are over 100 everyday (albeit with generally low humidity) and, so far, we usually only have a couple of fans running daily, no A/C or "Swamp" Cooler.
