We got about .75" last night and it's starting to rain again this morning. The place is a mess, but no major damage and I still have the solar panels on the roof.

No wind gauge in Lopez, so don't know how strong the winds were, but I don't think much as nothing was flying around.

What kind of weather forecaster do you have monoloco?

Wind came up at about 2:15 this morning and the rain blew in about 4:30.

Quit about 7:30 and did not leave enough water to make my street a river, so I'm guessing only maybe 1 1/2" or so fell here.

Now it's all quiet and very overcast.

We have a Davis Vantage Pro II weather station that uploads to Weather Underground. You can see the data here:
http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?...
The weather station name is Pescadero Heights and is the only west coast station online between Cabo San Lucas and Ensenada.

No winds, looks like it could pour again any minute.

Todos Santos is a mess. Electric on and off. Rain coming down good!

It was a hell of a night. Now, a lot of clean-up to do.

Now just hope the creek don't rise in good ole Mulege... Probably just wishful thinking from 1800 miles away...
Today is the 8th anniversary of Katrina on the gulf coast... Of course that's on the national news but nothing about Juliette...
Take care friends and neighbors... No one is in residence in our park...So no worries there...

Hi all...I am posting from BajaGypsy's place...only one small puddle from the last storm so it's all good here, for others..Casa Pargo was completely fine.

We are in the process of putting plywood over the windows...the wind was stronger than forecasted in the last storm and this one has higher winds..better safe than sorry although i dont see much movement here at all in town preparation wise...guests are leaving to avoid the storm.

The last storm claimed the life of a friend...heart attack and this morning claimed the lives of another whole family in a car crash, brother of one of our workers...been a rough few days so lets hope this storm cools it's heels a bit before it reaches us but it is moving very quickly and should be here early evening....it's calm, hot and humid right now....eerie.

Our phone line is down and the telmex guy hasnt been out to repair it. Look forward to more reports from the west coast...Mag Bay area in particular..be safe amigos.

Shari,
I have not heard a thing from San Carlos, so don't know how they fared.
This Juliette had more winds for us - but no trees down, etc, and less rain than Ivo.

Only about 3 hours of rain this morning - hard rain.

There seems to be a lot of junk following Juliette, so we are having periodic rains and periods of light and then dark clouds.
