9:13pm San Jose
Like reported, power out for 20 min now, just keeps blowing harder, more rain, 100-110+ doesn't sound far fetched right now, but pretty much shut in and everything's dark.

Heard from a former Mulege resident now living on the mainland just south of Zihuatanejo. The storm has passed there. No injuries reported. The public beach in Barra de Potosi has been destroyed which most likely excavated the thousands of turtle eggs that were just laid there two weeks ago. So sad....dammm.

Stay safe. Stay warm. Be well tonight, southern friends.
