HOT HOT HOT

TWC says 100 feels like 105 and I believe it
It is 92 on my porch right now and it feels like 100. Cant remember the last time it was over 90 on my palapa porch which is well vented and on the east/southeast side of my house.
How hot is it where you are in Baja?

In Mulegé it's about 90*

a very little rain...very

bajajudy, Bahia de Concepcion would be about as hot as the inside of a cow..right about now.

A perfect 70F/21C, sunny and calm here at 700' a.s.l. on Punta Banda. Can just barely make out Bajamar to the north through the light haze. I always jokingly ask my neighbors, who have been here longer, "When does the good weather get here?".

Doc, did you find my uncles marker when you took that picture? Lots of tears shed on that hill. He used to walk up there at least once a week and loved the view. Who doesn't.

Bigeye,
Your uncle drank Dom? Pix from the abandoned hut at approx 2,000'asl.



BCS nomads will be laughing at us northerners in January when it's only 5-10C in the morning.

originally wrote 5-10F....no, I moved away from Denver in 2006.:spingrin:

Its a Mercury thermometer not a bimetal which I don't trust. Our house has much shade and greenery we consider it to be naturally cool. Don't use AC at all.

That tall plant on the left in your photo is a Yucca Whipplei, the common name is Lord's Candle. In the spring when the white flowers are tender they are edible. Cook them up in your scrambled eggs. It's considered a delicacy by the Indians.

How high will we get.

Must be it. Even with the cost of water as it is, my conclusion is that plants are a pretty cost-effective way to cool a home... :D

I agree. Inside my house is still comfortable with just ceiling fans...but when the sun hits the west side of my house where we have few trees; oh say about 3pm, the ac will come on.
Our cocos have gotten so tall on that side that they dont shade the house at all. Time for something with lotsa leaves for that area.

2.00 PM and right at 87 here on my backporch in Nopolo.
Not uncomfortable at all. Humidity at 61, but right next to the golfcourse which is being watered day and night.

Here's an old, old photo that shows what a lot of Mulege people are doing to keep cool right now. This was at Burros beach ..probably sometime in the late 80's or early 90's. Trucks full of kids from town would descend on the place..what a hoot that was.

It was..and is...a great social event. We brought hot dogs and lots of full coolers. Fun times.

(found the right pic, finally...sheesh)
