The wall of the outer edge of Norbert is now visible to the South. Slight wind shift towards the South now. Satellite sites show it about 60 miles off
shore but can't tell if that's from the center of the storm. Wind sock still flying and the gauge worked briefly and recorded 28mph average. Surprised
it's so close and conditions are still fairly mild. These photos were from 15 min ago and it's now white-out with slight rain.
Looking across the Bahia San Juanico across the peninsula in the direction of Mulege and Loreto (towards the Right in the photo). Alan T. we're just
now seeing Norbert effects and I would not plan to drive over here until it passes. |
...interesting and well detailed report!...it really confirms accuracy of this site I'm following ... http://passageweather.com/#
....30-40mph winds isn't surprising ....consistant with intensity/distance forecasts.....
it's saying Asunción should expect ~30-35mph this eve---a marked improvement over earlier readings,,,,and there's an amazing left-hook and
dissipation overnight.....easing my concern for sunday morning!
....the 'asuncisharinomad's more stable environment' is coming into effect !!     
........'oladulce'.......the bottom photo--you're facing east,,(L is north)??--I think I can see your place on google earth....try giving a wave!
O.m.g.....I realize I've -really- been -battering- the correct spelling for Asunción--my apologies....let's hope that's the worst battering you folks
get!!

I am so glad Mulege is fine and Lopez sounds not horrible although definitely some flooding there by the looks of that article. So we taped the
windows and are hoping Norbert continues on his predicted track. The swells are bigger now of course and we had some rain squalls...the best is yet to
come for us...gonna try to nap now for possible bucket brigade tonight.

Worst of this could be where it slows & sends a coupla 3 days of rain on the area south of Ensenada. Current NOAA tracks show it stalling
offshore as a tropical depression and taking 2 days coming ashore there.

Looks like the big ditch project was successful. No flood damage to report. The new little causeway bridge, under the main bridge, is still in place.
An old timer told me yesterday that if it rains here for morethan eight hours Mulege will flood. It was a very heavy downpour here last night and
yesterday, so it must have been raining in the mtns, so.......... |
That's great news Richard, glad to hear the Orchard area is intact.

it seems the storm is just now really starting to crank up. The worry here is that a bout 20 years ago there was a storm just like this one that
stalled just offshore then decided to swing inland here and really screwed things up...lets hope not.

Windy here again. 20+ SSE - It's sunny now but there are huge clouds off to the West & South. More later. Still hoping all are well on the coast.
It is really scary when one of these stalls only to regain strength and move slowly on. Hope it heads NW quickly.

Ok so we are putting up some plywood on some windows...just in casee! Here are a few photos from last night and this morning. It is blowing about 30
plus from the east now and hot.
lets hope these palms are here tomorrow morning! the waves came over the bank again last night and this afternoon the seas are really building...more
at 11!
this was a good place NOT to build a house....eaten by a storm a few years back.
these folks will be plenty nervous
the wave watchers last night
the latest out here at the point...a washing machine.

Newest models show more of a north-westerly track for now, which is good for the Guerrero cape area; but it also shows a strong 90 degree right-turn
when it hits colder water/ wind-shear, and looks to be targeting the San Quintin / El Rosario area. It'll drop to TS/TD status, but will bring a LOT
of rainfall to the central Peninsula in 4 to 5 days. Best wishes to all.
I don't have a BUCKET LIST, but I do have a F***- IT LIST a mile long!

Yep, well stated, Brinloor.
Are you and mom tucked in and safe tonight? If you need anything over here, call any time.
Good luck, Mulege town folk. Be safe tonight.
Be vigilant friends of the wildcoast and mountains. Great care.

Well Norbert is looking a bit like Norman in 1978. Here is a link to the track Norman took. I remember about 1" of rain in San Diego and flooding in
the Sierras.-------
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1978_Pacific_hurricane_season#m...
Well, that link wasn`t what I wanted, but scroll down to Norman and click the track image. Comes into SoCal.
