Rain???


I'll be heading home on Thursday and I hear rumors of rain below the boarder. It's raining, more like drizzle, in Laguna now. Any reports would appreciated. Thanks:?:

There calling for rain late tonight, tomorrow and Thursday AM here, Russ. Doesn't look like a lot, but the roads will probably be wet.

30% chance of rain on Friday on the Sonoran coast just across the pond from Chivato, Russ. Your chance is probably 10-20% higher over there. Appears to be from this Pacific low that is affecting SoCal right now as the temps will drop to the 70s. Not a southern event.

Looks like more rain is going to hit here in IB----lots of clouds and predicted 70% chance for today and tomorrow.

We would like to know if anyone knows how far south the rain is predicted? One place I checked said it was 30% chance for Ensenada, but further south?

Just wondering if it will affect the river crossings.

I started packing this morning so I'm hoping there won't be any real rain storms and that it's dry roads around San Quitin. I hate it when the wipers won't keep up with the mud. As with Diane any updates will be appreciated.

It's not that bad, Russ. Intermitant showers, nothing serious. The roads will dry fast and I don't think there will be flooding anywhere.

I was going to head north next week, but in light of these storms and also the weather in No. California, I am in no hurry. They are getting snow down to the 3,000' level (at my house), big wind gusts and the temperature highs dropped down into the 30s F. :O

Oh damn...I'll just have to stay here and fish.:bounce:

Hi Russ,

I'm in LB right now and there is no rain just some dark clouds. We're supposed to get a little bit tonight and maybe a bit tomorrow but nothing serious. It should be a very nice week-end for you.

Russ, I was just ahead of you, crossed the border yesterday, spent the night in San Vicente, and came in to San Bruno this morning. Dry as a bone the whole way, lots of wind and blowing sand at Guerrero Negro, but nothing else.
