Got the wind here in Loreto, but no rain. Wish we would get some wet stuff, pretty dry here. It did cool things down a bit, so that's good.

The patio is a nice addition to your place, good to see it held up in the high winds.

Bob and Susan, do you have a weather station at your location? I am curious to know how the wind speed and rainfall at your place yesterday compares
with the data collected at the weather station in (downtown?) Mulege? That station recorded a mere 0.04 inches of total precipitation and a maximum
wind gust of 30 miles per hour.

CFE said only 4 palms down. 2 here, 2 next door and one by the mission. Winds were fierce, guessing 50 mph. Took a 6 x 8 ft Tecate sign down, all the
pool furniture went 50 yds, took my awning out of my hands and debri everywhere. River road has a bit of debris, but nothing serious, just a few palm
fongs. Rain was a very pleasant relief.

Report from Colonia Loma Azul
Mulege neighborhood on the hill, north river road out to the lighthouse:
no rain.
big honkin' winds.
two roofs lifted and gone, a la Wizard of Oz.
wow! This was only a chubasco, children.
An isolated and unexpected event.
Baja's a fabulous, magical land and I call it home, but I'll tell ya' its not for the faint of heart, imo.

No rain in Loma Azul? Then what changed the half inch of polvo in my bathroom to a quarter inch of lodo when the tiles blew off?
