Hurricane Vance - I thought hurricane season was over


Looks like we have another possible hurricane starting down South. They are giving it an 80% chance in 5 days and we were just getting ready to head South.

The guy on this link says the season goes until the end of November.

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
1100 AM PDT SUN OCT 26 2014

For the eastern North Pacific...east of 140 degrees west longitude:

A broad area of low pressure centered a few hundred miles south of
the Gulf of Tehuantepec continues to produce disorganized shower
and thunderstorm activity. Dry air is currently inhibiting
development, but environmental conditions are forecast to become
more conducive for tropical cyclone formation later this week while
the system drifts toward the west-northwest.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

Regardless, water temps are slowly dropping. Chances that it becomes a powerful system look to be pretty low.

I don't know, Ana seems to be thriving in the cold water up North.

In a week and a half, I'll be down there. I've always wanted to see a hurricane close-up and personal.

80% chance of it forming, several hundred miles south. Almost zero chance that it will affect Baja.

Like someone said, water temps are dropping rapidly around here. The WNW winds have been blowing for a couple weeks, now. Temps are about to drop below 80 F in many places. Even cooler on the Pacific side of Baja.

Talk about your irony, Tropical Storm (former Hurricane) Anna is going to impact BCN... British Columbia Norte... tomorrow, combining with another system from the northwest, forecast to bring at least 2-3" or more of rain and 50 mph. winds into the northwest for the next few days; heavy tree-damage from high winds and wet due to foliage still on the deciduous trees. Anna started out south of Baja a few weeks ago or so, traveled westward and looped around the Hawaiian Islands, to meander to now the Pacific Northwest. Wot a World!

Far's 93E goes, I think it'll have about as much chance as the Bears did against the Patriots this weekend; total washout. Baja travelers, just be aware of the Big Race next week, so starting the end of this week through middle of next, not a good time to be on the highway with all the chase vehicles and such... be extra diligent. Buen Viaje!

The Baja HaHa cruisers group (170 boats) left San Diego today. Turtle Bay first stop, Bahia Santa Maria second, then Cabo San Lucas. They have never encountered a hurricane on the Baja HaHa. Might be some apprehension.

Yes yes... But I was referring to a Cat 1+ to make landfall in Baja.

However 180 hr model does look like it will become a small compact TS - Cat 1 but... Yep I know, it could turn into a Cat 4 and nail Baja... "A random walk"...
