Are there anymore reports of this storm?
The advice I am about to give you is worth what you are paying for it.

Where are you ?????????????????
While all weather posts are welcome ... if there is no clue as to your location ... the post is close to worthless.
Please, location, location, location.

Well, based on his username, I'd guess Cabo, but in light of the fact that you're CaboRon & happen to be in Todos Santos, I guess
that might screw up that logic!
Relax & look out the window. For all practical purposes, you don't need to start worrying until & unless the wind picks up big time (100 mph)
or you start to see pangas floating past your place!

I'm on the East Cape south of Los Frailes. Gusty winds about 30, my five gallon rain gauge says about 2" since midnight. That's when we had to abandon
the upstairs bed. Hasn't rained much in the last couple hours here, just the wind. Looks like Cabo and Todos Santos are going to be in the way on this
one. Does anyone know how the arroyo's are around La Ribera? Have some people supposed to fly out late today from SJD.

Hey, what can I say Longleggs, I was planning on retireing in Cabo San Lucas ...
Things change .....
The name came long before the move.
If I change my name now, I would lose my super duper nomad status

It would be simpler if you would put your location in the sidebar.
On a weather thread, I only read the most current entries, not yesterdays, which have little or no meaning to the current conditions.

11am, just west of San Jose
Some rain, but not heavy. Wind about 25 to 30. Wind is easterly, which means the center of the storm is west of us. Still have power. No flooding
in my area. All roads open in my area. BIG SURF. Really, not too much going on at this time.
BajaJudy, can you give us a report? What is the status of the arroyo out your way?

And to think that I thought you were a show girl from Bolivia.

Had the first downpour here in Nopolo. Heavy rain for about 20 min. with some windgusts to maybe 25 mph.
This is, according to sat.pics, only the beginning of this storm and it's very outer reaches. Lots to come. It's just reaching Cabo.

When and if the going gets rough, try NOAA as long as your computer and or cell phone works. Cabo Mil on the computer via iTunes got me through one
long night.The worst part of a severe weather event is the isolation and wondering how long before the roof or the doors or windows are going to blow
out.
If you are in the path of an arroyo or at the shoreline, consider moving yourself to a place where you can appreciate the power of nature without a
too subjective experience.
As a final note, I was a bit miffed and downright rude to a Mexican family who invited themselves into my house as FAUSTO approached. I sure sang
another tune when that storm broadsided Todos and they sprang into action to protect my house, my car, my pets and me. After the storm subsided they
cleaned up my place, fallen trees and all and went back to repair their sti ck and mud walls and palapa roof.

We had a little over an inch of rain during the night.
Now sprinkles and gusts of no more than 20mph.
Still pretty dark but nothing scary.
Road open as of now(2:00pm) but not much traffic. Well, except for the dump truck puerto los cabos is sending down the road to fill in the holes.

I don't know Lou...
That looks like a direct hit or very close to me, just give it another day of forecast... plus factor in the high tides we're experiancing on
Thursday, high waves and storm surge, spells recipe for disaster for the homes on the beaches...
Hopefully it won't bring a lot of rain, as the roads are in bad enough shape as it is...
Haven't had a bad trip yet....
