I hope it proves to be right, we can use the rain (as I'm always saying these days). It has been hot and muggy these last few days. Although there's been a pleasant breeze in the early afternoon, not so at night, dead still.

yeah D, looks like the same track Hilary was suppossed to take, curving towards Cabo in a week. who knows? the models only really get a grip about 90 hours out. from that point until zero hour is 90%.

fingers crossed.

I fly into Los Cabos on the 8th. It will be interesting to see who is in town when I arrive. I would love to see rain without wind, if that is possible.

I read somewhere that La Paz is in the driest part of the Cape Region, and driving through it this year really puts that in perspective. While much of the Cape Region is covered in green, our hills continue to have that post-nuclear holocaust look.

In short, I'd take my rain with sh*t about now.

Welcome home, Eli. It'll be good to have you back.

Hurricane chart


Here is the forecast - code named "Igor" (unofficially) - either Magic Seaweed will turn out to be prognosticadores extraordinarias or smokers of own product as none of the other weather sites have picked up on this (yet).

Talking of strange forecasts - my favorite surf forecast website posted a very strange wave energy reading for Hilary at Punta Marquez last week - I worked out that would have produced a beach break of about 194ft high . . .. sorry Woody!

From Surfline:TROPICS: A disturbance off southern Mexico doesn't look like it's going to develop a whole bunch, but we'll continue to monitor it. Nothing else is brewing now, although long range charts indicate that we may see something develop in a few days. For all tropical storm activity be sure to check out Hurricanetrak.

Predicting where a hurricane will develop and travel to this early is as good as predicting an earthquake tomorrow anywhere.

Water temps in the SOC are 90 to 94º from way south of Cabo north to Santa Rosalita, shore to shore. That's what we normally refer to as a Welcome Mat but Eastern Pacific Highs off the west coast of Baja have kept all the hopefuls so far south, east or powerless.

The water here is nowhere near 90....I would guess much closer to 80.

FOR THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC...EAST OF 140 DEGREES WEST LONGITUDE..

CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR GRADUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM
DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS IT MOVES WESTWARD AT ABOUT 10
MPH. THIS SYSTEM HAS A LOW CHANCE...20 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A
TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.
