Just went into town and people are talking about a city 100 miles north called "Constitution" ? that is badly flooded with fourteen inches of rain
and evacuations underway.
Is this just rumermill ? or does anyone have any solid info.??

Hoping the water stays below your home again !!
Sorry to Sharks and others ...... another clean-up.
Maybe the equipment we donated last time will help.
Also hoping that everyone stays safe. |
Thanks Diver we appreciate that. At least you didn't say "told you so". Sure that will come later.
Yep, I'll bet that equipment will be very handy. Good on you for remembering. I wonder if I kept the equipment I have as an omen.
Deja freakin' Vu
Oh yea, here is a current Mulege weather site:

There's a report about it in the paper (if that is any more accurate):
http://www.oem.com.mx/elsudcaliforniano/notas/n826630.htm (Spanish)
translation:
Google translation
(Wikipedia: Ciudad Constitución is a city in the Mexican state of Baja California Sur. It is the seat of the municipality of Comondú and is located
210 kilometers north of La Paz, Baja California Sur, and 147 kilometers south of Loreto,)

Farming community south of Loreto. last storm farms lost many animals and equipment. Many new bridges built over bad spots here on Mex 1 should help
but this could be worse than John was.
Hang in there folks.
The advice I am about to give you is worth what you are paying for it.

Comondu, La Purisima and San Isidro have probably taken a hard hit.

The mulege weather station is showing rainfall of 5.94 inches today...
I hope this is not accurate as that would be way to much for the river to discharge without spilling its banks.

What a great job of reporting in - when you are in the States the news coverage is non-existent.

For up-to-date satellite imagery, go to Nat. Hurricane center website, east pacific tab; and also try satelitte imagery and look at GOES floater
imagery. The GOES floater gives you satelite images within past 30 minutes, and has a loop fxn, allowing you to see past hour or 2 of movement.

My husband, father and friends are down in Mulege (at the Oasis Park) fishing this week. They were flooded out earlier today and escaped up the hill
behind the park. Houses on the river and a block up from the river are flooded, estimated 4 feet in houses on the river.
They were at Equipales getting something to eat as there is a generator. Didn't know where they were spending the night.
It doesn't sound as bad as 2006, but pretty bad all the same . Town is also a
mess.

Well, seeing sunshine, little or no wind nor rain. Perhaps its gone north. We did get our share of rain.
The highway north from Ejido San Lucas is no longer open to Santa Rosalia. It will be soon, but we had a rio muy grande in one of the arroyos.
Looking good here and thankful for the water in the mountains.
