RAIN! In Punta Chivato

Russ - 9-30-2007 at 12:46 PM

1:41 We're having a nice shower right now! OOPS it's dying.
1:55 rain stopped but it was nice while it lasted. Lots of thunder still so maybe we'll get another shower or two. Bahia Concepcion very dark.

http://www.eebmike.com/ has added another very nice pane to the site that shows your little dose of rain very graphically.

Russ Thanks for the weather report. Looks sorta spooky, but the water's slick.:bounce:

Russ Looks like one of those those summer squalls that pop up here and there.:) Easy to avoid, but bad if you're caught in one of 'em.:)

Holy spit...we got our token 350 drops in the middle of the night! NIce and balmy here today and partly cloudy...lovely for all the lobster fishermen collecting lobster on their first day of the season.

capt. mike ..... I may have met Gene but there are so many new people here now and my memory is so bad I'm not sure. Last name may trigger a spark.
-----Just had a spark,,,, I haven't met him but I know of him. He has the place next to the boat ramp. ?

Russ so has it greened up Punta Chavito? I just got back from Flying in to Loreto and driving to San Juanico and I've never seen it so green looked like Hawaii. Loved it and took lots of pictures.

Russ - 10-1-2007 at 06:21 PM

Greened up a little. right now it looks like Concepcion is getting a shower and we might too?

WOW!

Last night we had a fantastic light show including huge bass drums. When the rain finally came it we got a quarter inch in just over an hour. Everything is so nice and clean this morning. The wind/breeze was out of the West at about 10 mph so I only closed the windows on that side of the house and sat out and watched the show. We usually only get a fraction of the rain that the rest of the area gets so it'll be interesting to hear from Bob & Susan in Bahia Concepcion.

nothing here on the bay...
clear and stars out ALL night

its sure weird how just a couple of miles makes a BIG differance

we saw the lights...lots of them:wow:

the "boys" came this morning from town and
said they had a little rain in Mulege last night....

"huge bass drums" don't tell dennis...
he'll be here in a heartbeat:lol:
