BajaNomad - Cooler Weather in BCS???

Cooler Weather in BCS???

tiotomasbcs - 10-7-2011 at 07:47 AM

Have the storms from the NW and San Diego cooled off the weather in the southern cities? EEBMike shows La Paz at 68 degrees and Constitucion at 62 degrees! Crisp, clear mornings and blue skies here in Bahia Asuncion. It appears the storms south of Cabo are being sheared off and pushed eastward. Any reports or news, compadres. Lots of people waiting to hear if the hot weather has broken! Mil Gracias. :coolup:

The last two mornings have felt like waking up in La Mision, instead of El Centenario. 73 yesterday, and 70 this morning, just before the sun pops over the mountains behind La Paz. Very comfortable.

Man, I hope so! I am a woosie about hot weather, I bet I would never leave home if it weren't for the overheating factors I experinse during the summer months!

bajabass - 10-7-2011 at 08:04 AM

Eli, I was warned about the heat before I moved down. Thought I was ready for it. :no:

The last 3 months have been spent on the boat, at the beach, in the pool, or under the shade!!!!

They now know my life story down at the Modelarama on the highway, Pacifico and ice are going to bankrupt me :biggrin:

lovely this morning here in Loreto. 77 degrees or so around 6am, with a nice brisk northerly breeze. felt good to pull the spread up over me for the first time.
will warm to around 95 I hear, but the cooler nights are a most welcome sign of things to come.

Russ - 10-7-2011 at 08:31 AM

66º this morning

Eli - 10-7-2011 at 09:18 AM

Thanks for the early morning temp. reports, ever hopeful, makes the hot time of day sitting under a fan in the shade bearable. What I can't take is the no cool off periods, you know when you wake up at 3 am in a sweat, even though you have the ceiling and stand-up fans both centered on you. I did 16 Baja summers in a row, plus a few in my childhood, I hope I am done with sweating out summer for this lifetime.
O.k., it is now count down the hours time; just 26 hours to some of the best hugs of the year.

62° when I got up this am. NW wind is muy feo today on the central Pacific of Baja Sur. My weather station says the gusts are 33 mph currently. Wind this direction blows straight off the dry "lake" bed behind the town and blows straight down all the streets in town to the beach. I'd take a photo but can't actually see the town from here, just a cloud of white dust. Glad we have desert behind us but there's still lots of dirt in the air. Yuck, flashbacks of springtime when I frequently question why the heck we moved here.

A world of difference from the lovely weather in La Paz yesterday.

70 when I woke up
Water nice and cool.
Now the days are another story....still over 95 here

Yeah, the last few summers I was home for the hot times, I lived an A.C. existence, and got cabin fever; You know, a.c. in my bedroom at home, a.c. in the car, a.c. in the gallery. Most certainly a valid solution.
I am going to try sleeping outside on the porch with a stand up fan when I get home, the universe will be my ceiling until cools it off enough to sleep inside without the A.C.
Before I moved into this fancy summer casita, I figure I spent on rent traveling mainland what I did for the a.c. bills in Baja for the summers.

Russ - 10-7-2011 at 12:26 PM

20 + mph N winds this afternoon only 79º and a dry 33%

tiotomasbcs - 10-7-2011 at 03:27 PM

Very strong north winds here in Asuncion, too!! They started up around 9:30am and have been throwing dirt and sand and buffeting my corrugated steel roof! The windows are whistling, too! The sun was still hot and dry! Pangas all returned early. This blow must be reaching all the way to Chippy in Colima?!

Three day wind event? Santa Anas? Hope not. Tio

bajabass - 10-7-2011 at 04:07 PM

We've had a pretty steady 10-15mph breeze most of the day, though a cool one for sure. No A/C all day today.

no ac needed now...

oxxo - 10-7-2011 at 06:14 PM

In the last 24 hours, the high at my weather station here in Los Cabos was 95 and the low 80. It is 88 at 7pm this evening. I don't know why anyone would want to live here. My recommendation is to avoid this place at all cost. Oh wait, the sunset tonight looks like spun cotton candy.

BajaBlanca - 10-7-2011 at 08:11 PM

Les had to put on a heavy jacket during the day today ... it was COLD. The furnace inside keeps me feeling warm no matter how cold it gets

:lol:

It was very windy in the afternoon but settled down nicely after a few hours. Definitely a change in climate from yesterday to today.

bajabass - 10-7-2011 at 08:13 PM

Yeah, it's a tough job, but someone HAS to do it!! :lol:

Bajatripper - 10-8-2011 at 12:53 AM

2 a.m. in La Paz and I'm showing 88 degrees. But the days have been getting marginally cooler.

willyAirstream - 10-8-2011 at 04:32 AM

Yesterday was the first day in a long time I didn't turn on the AC. Very light breeze here, just a perfect day with a high around 87. This am it is 75, 40% humidity, no breeze.

Russ - 10-8-2011 at 06:04 AM

66º here this morning. We had strong winds all day yesterday and most of the night. 6mph NW breeze now.

Bob and Susan - 10-8-2011 at 06:31 AM

tiotomasbcs - 10-8-2011 at 07:05 AM

Saturday morning --sunrise. North wind still showing. Blew most of the night, also! Very clear and the Sun is an orange ball as it rises over the east. Warm & dry but I can feel it's going to blow, un dia mas. Glad to hear we are all lovin it! My favorite time of the year! Good info and reports. Tio

Hook - 10-8-2011 at 07:11 AM

One San Carlos station reported 63 this AM.

Winter aint here yet. One more day of "cool" weather and then we get back into the mid 90s with humidity over here and by Thursday, more monsoonal flow, possibly remnant hurricane moisture.

bajabass - 10-8-2011 at 07:27 AM

70 this morning at 7 in El Centenario. A good breeze starting and stopping. There is some weather on the Sea Of Cortez close by. Buoy Weather is showing wind and big swells for almost a week steady.
Good timing because I am waiting for a prop for the boat from the states. Should calm down about the same day I get the prop.
