OUCH....That be HOT for sure. Humidity is tolerable though.

DENNIS - 6-5-2011 at 02:51 PM

Just looked at StormPulse, Russ. There's some activity south of you that may be moving in your direction. Keep an eye on it.

Good to know that climate change is bunk, eh?

Eli - 6-5-2011 at 03:52 PM

Yesterday I flew out of Los Cabos. I did not know how hot I have been the last few weeks until I got to Mexico City and realized that my upper lip is no longer damp, the hair is no longer sticking to my forehead and the back of my neck, the general oppression of sweat over my whole being is no longer an issue. Do I miss home? You bet I do. Do I miss the heat? Nope, not even.

I'll watch it now "450 miles south of acapulco"

Hey Howodd! I been living under a big rock in my cave. Uh....what is "climate change"? :lol:

I asked Barney and Fred if that is the same thing as "Global Warming" and they threw me out of the cave. And so....now here I am up here in the light and there's sure some weird sh*t goin' on up here in the real world.

c'mon GFS!

You need better insulation, my house is about 20 degrees cooler than the outside temp. And with that humidity a swamp cooler would work great.

Some folks handle heat better than others. I used to handle it OK but over the years my tolerance has diminished. I admire you guys down on the southern end...

BajaBlanca - 6-5-2011 at 08:04 PM

we were cold all day .... windy all afternoon .... no wind now nor in the mornings ... but the temps are not high by any strectch of the imagination.

bajagringo - I so agree about the no tolerance to the HEAT. ughhhhh

have fun Eli.

This just might be our first storm of the season & it went from 10% to 90% chance of tropical storm or greater in approximately 24 hours!! Pray for a little rain but a lot of strong westward movement....right out into the ocean! :yes:

Hook - 6-5-2011 at 09:59 PM

We hit 105 over here. Felt like DV in July. Or a nasty Santa Ana in the basin.

The Guaymas airport broke their record for the date by SIX DEGREES FAHRENHEIT!!

Of course, they have no idea what a FAHRENHEIT is.................

Marc - 6-6-2011 at 06:40 AM

In Burma just before the monsoon it was 44ºC (112ºF). You could cut the humidity with a knife. Later in Rangoon it dropped to 41º.
When it gets hot here I try to remember what that was like.

Funny, my wife and I are just the opposite. When I was younger, I thought nothing of jumping in the 60 degree water off So. Calif and thought it was fine. Now it has to be at least 75 to consider it, 80 is better. Seems that it is easier to find ways to cooll off than to warm up. I can't even stand to watch movies with snow in them.

HOT ??

We left El Sargento/La Ventana about a week ago: Mid 90's, clear blue sky, light east breezes, good fishing days, the Baja life. :biggrin:

This morning: High 20's, actively SNOWING with 6-8 inches on the deck, 25 mph winds, possibly good ICE fishing, dreaming of the Baja life. :no:

WHAT WERE WE THINKING ?? :?:

BajaBlanca - 6-6-2011 at 10:04 AM

RnR - what were you thinking ????????????????????????

Today it is so nice and warm here on the Pacific side - not HOT just nice.... I can't, I swear, even imagine being in the snow right now. but is is so pretty to look at thru the windows.

:biggrin:

I remember talking with a woman from India last summer---I was complaining of the oppressive heat in Fort Worth---well into the 100s that day and still in the 90s(and humid of course) around 10:30 at night---she says, oh this is nice weather--not to bad---you should come to India before the monsoons hit!

DavidE - 6-6-2011 at 11:39 AM

KCAUQ!

Backward duck heading south mañana. Down to the Pacific coast and I am going to hide out there until November. Mulege is warm during the day but found my interior thermometer at 85.8F at 0600 this morning with 31% humidity. A swamp cooler loses its ability to evaporatively chill air once humidity reaches around 40 to 50 percent.

fjacobberger - 6-6-2011 at 12:04 PM

Weather site says its 70ish in Tijuana and over 100 in Rosarito. Is that kind of difference normal?

woody with a view - 6-6-2011 at 12:12 PM

no.

Welcome to BajaNomad, fj----.

The town must be on fire. Let it go. It's an act of a merciful God.

I doubt the accuracy of that temp reading. TJ is in the 70s and so are we. Not much reason Rosarito would be much different.

fjacobberger - 6-6-2011 at 12:35 PM

Whew! That's good. Didn't seem like a few miles should make that much difference. Of course, up here we got only two temps - 90 above and 20 below.

Thanks for the welcome. Hope to be prowling around down there soon.

Well, here's the picture thru the window! This may be pretty to look at around Christmas time, but not on June 6th!!

If I hear about global warming one more time ....... :mad:

No doubt you'll get your wish.
It's warming up nicely here in Loreto. :biggrin:
