BOLA weather
I’m heading down to BOLA on the 25th of this month and would sure appreciate it if someone would let me know what the daytime and nighttime temps have
been lately.

You dont need us.
Link.
If accurate, it seems like it's been a relatively low month for wind in BOLA.

I just returned a few days ago from that region. The weather was perfect - hot during the day with cool evening breezes! Subject to change of course!

Yeah, I'm beginning to think that the temp sensor is subject to direct or near-direct sun.
While 116 is certainly possible at BOLA, the fact that it hit a high of 113.5 today and has dropped to 96 as we approach the hot part of the day seems
very unlikely.

Check into Del Sol. She keeps the rooms COLD.

Not sure what it will be when you get here, but yesterday here in the south bay it was 88 deg in the shade and last night in the mid 70's. It is
tending to warm up.
good luck

Thanks Larry We will be staying at Gecko, I just hope the generator will run the trailer A/C so we can sleep. I'm not worried about the heat during
the day, bring it on, but I am concerned with it being too hot at night.

I'm not sure about the power sched at Gecko... BUT , this time of the year, a cheap-o ($20?) 10" battery powered fan like this has saved a couple
camping trips for me. 8-D batteries & it will run on low for nights. (Hit your body up with a damp rag and you may even gET coOL!). I LoVe
HeaT & employ the "bring it on" attitude as well. But at night, THATs when I need to refill the tank to do battle w/ the sun & beer another
day. This assures me of that for cheap.. (although it usually just stays in the Box, in the back of the truck)...

I loved my O2 Cool fan. The one I had had ran off AC/12v/rechargeable batteries. Pretty quiet, too.
Unfortunately, after probably only 30 hours of operation, it quit. The SEALED Chinese motor just stopped. No way to fix it.

We have two O2 units at our place in Gecko and we get nearly a week out of 8 D Cells. You can also hook them up to a 12 volt battery. They are quiet
and give a gentle breeze. They are quiet. You can still hear the pelicans dive at night. Real quiet. No problem hearing the coyotes. Nice and
quiet, yeseree. You can hear Beach Bob snore over the sound this quiet fan makes. I heartily suggest you get a few. Nothing like the quiet
enjoyment of the desert at night.

Larry, where is that weather station in BOLA? Are those temps reliable or is the sensor in a bad position?

It's a great area to be! Please make sure that you pack PLENTY of water for the drive to BoLA. Not fun being broke down without cool water. Have fun
dude!
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
