Good to get some rain to wash the dust off the cactus, clean the filthy streets of San Felipe


That's the truth, even in San Diego and I suppose Ensenada. And of course, in TJ, being a hilly city, tons of garbage will be washed into the TJ river mouth.

Motor oil, pesticides, fertilizers, plastic and perhaps sewage from inundated sewer systems. Stay out of coastal waters near the cities for a week or so if there are heavy rains.

Sure. Smoke some pot, then wake up to 1ft of water and mud in your Mulege home. Or La Paz. Or Cabo. Or BOLA. With roads impassable and hospitals and airports closed. But hey, smoke another joint and all is good again.

It's fun joking about it... until you personally are affected.

Notes from this morning's advisory:


Full page: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCPEP5+shtml/291448...

WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY:

None.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:

A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for...
* West coast of the Baja California peninsula from Punta Abreojos
to Cabo San Quintin

A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for...
* East coast of the Baja California peninsula from Bahia de los
Angeles to San Felipe

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Over the next few days, Rosa is expected to produce the
following total rainfall accumulations:

Baja California and northwestern Sonora: 3 to 6 inches, isolated
10 inches.

The Mogollon Rim of Arizona: 2 to 4 inches, isolated 6 inches.

Rest of the Desert Southwest, Central Rockies, and Great Basin:
1 to 2 inches, isolated 4 inches.

These rainfall amounts would produce life-threatening flash flooding
and dangerous debris flows in the deserts, as well as landslides in
mountainous terrain.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to first reach the
coast within the warning area by Monday morning. Tropical storm
conditions are possible within the watch area by late Monday.

SURF: Swells generated by Rosa will affect portions of the coasts
of southwestern Mexico, most of the west coast of the Baja
California peninsula, and southern California through Tuesday.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your
local weather office.

This will almost undoubtedly affect our drive down 5 in about 3 weeks heading to Mulege. A lot of rain in the area of construction could make that area a mess along with the construction around Puertocitis.
Then we will have to watch old Sergio brewing down south and see what track he takes...
Oh well, challenge accepted... Maybe...

San Diego region going to get barely a sprinkle, probably not enough to wash the dust off my car.
Western Arizona looks set to get a good flash flood or 3.
SPM mountains should get a good dump.
With luck, the filth of San Felipe will be washed out to sea along with the poachers and meth dealers, we hope.
San quint0in down to Catavina should get a good dump too.
