Puerto A. Lopex Mateos:
Just started raining - not heavily but steady at 7:30a.m.
Not a breath of wind or air moving.
Grey, grey, grey.
Suffocating!

From the latest report, looks like you will not get a direct hit, Shari.
But, whomever has a leaky roof...be prepared with the buckets.

Ditto what Mula and Shimmer posted. We're right between you two. Started raining here a bit before 7 AM. Still very light gentle rain - no wind to
speak of.

68 on my porch
Started raining about 8 last night and has been a steady drizzle up until about an hour ago when it really started coming down. Very little wind so
far.

It appears there is currently two cells. Paul is moving up the coast. The other cell is over the tip of Baja creating the rain currently going on

12 noon in Lopez Mateos.
Still raining steadily. Not light, but not hard, either.
A little wind ruffling the palm fronds and grey, grey, grey.

it looks pretty dark to the south of us...Juan is loading up on yellowtail...his clients wanted to spearfish but after they got all geared up and were
going to jump in...a dozen Orcas surrounded the boat...ummm...change of plan...so they are rod fishing now.
the wind just switched to the south west and the clouds are coming closer.....
when it starts raining at San Ignacio we will bring the cushions in I guess!

Light drizzle in Loreto all morning. Been grey since yesterday. Great day for a book.

awwww....they look fed up all right!!! in more ways than one.
the problem with this rain cell...the pre Paul rain, is that the ground will be saturated and so when the real rain hits, it will flow faster as it
wont be soaking in...ruh roh! I wonder how bad the roads will get???

a snotty couple days...hang in there amigos.
HURRICANE PAUL DISCUSSION NUMBER 8
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP162012
800 AM PDT MON OCT 15 2012
PAUL IS INTENSIFYING. THE CLOUD PATTERN OF THE CYCLONE IS BECOMING
AN INCREASINGLY SYMMETRIC CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST WITH VERY COLD
CLOUD TOP TEMPERATURES. AN EYE SEEN IN MICROWAVE IMAGERY EARLIER
HAS BECOME INTERMITTENTLY VISIBLE IN CONVENTIONAL IMAGERY. DVORAK
CLASSIFICATIONS HAVE INCREASED TO T4.5 FROM BOTH SATELLITE AGENCIES
AT 1200 UTC...AND THE INITIAL INTENSITY ESTIMATE IS INCREASED TO 80
KT.
PAUL HAS ACCELERATED DURING THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS AND THE INITIAL
MOTION ESTIMATE IS 010/11. THE CYCLONE SHOULD BE STEERED NORTHWARD
OR NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD BY DEEP-LAYER SOUTHERLY FLOW EAST OF A
MID-/UPPER-LEVEL TROPOSPHERIC LOW CUTTING OFF NEAR 23N 118W DURING
THE NEXT DAY OR TWO. AFTER 48 HOURS...PAUL SHOULD DECELERATE AND
TURN NORTHWESTWARD AND THEN WEST-NORTHWESTARD AROUND THE CLOSED
LOW. THE TRACK GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH 48 HOURS AND
HAS AGAIN SHIFTED FARTHER EASTWARD. THE OFFICIAL FORECAST IS
ADJUSTED IN THAT DIRECTION BUT IS NOT QUITE AS FAR EAST AS THE
ECMWF AND GFS SOLUTIONS.
ALTHOUGH SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES BENEATH PAUL ARE ALREADY GRADUALLY
DECREASING...ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS SHOULD REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR
ADDITIONAL INTENSIFICATION FOR ABOUT 12 HOURS OR SO. AFTER THAT
TIME...INCREASING SOUTH-SOUTHWESTERLY SHEAR ASSOCIATED WITH THE
CLOSED LOW TO THE WEST OF PAUL AND EVEN COOLER WATERS SHOULD RESULT
IN STEADY WEAKENING. THE WEAKENING COULD BECOME MORE RAPID AFTER 48
HOURS WHEN THE VERTICAL SHEAR IS FORECAST TO INCREASE FURTHER...AND
THE CYCLONE COULD DECOUPLE AT THAT TIME. THE NHC INTENSITY FORECAST
HAS BEEN ADJUSTED UPWARD IN THE SHORT TERM TO ACCOUNT FOR THE
CURRENT INTENSIFICATION.
THE EASTWARD SHIFT OF THE TRACK...ALONG WITH THE FORECAST WIND
RADII...REQUIRES THE ISSUANCE OF A TROPICAL STORM WARNING FOR A
PORTION OF THE WEST COAST OF THE BAJA PENINSULA AND AN EXTENSION OF
THE TROPICAL STORM WATCH.
FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS
