Diver,
Thank's for the nice and clear image .... most of the other charts have so many lines and circles that you can't even tell what the heck is going
on.

I think they turn when they hit a sharp change in water tempature. The warm water often refered to as "fuel" steers it away from cold waters. The
NHC is usually pretty close when it comes to predicting these things. They have quite a facility!!
But I guess just a simple hold on to your hat is all you will have to do if you live in one of those bunker houses that the highly acclamied architect
is designing in Todo Santos....

Looking at the models, there is a high degree of uncertainty about this storm -- much more so than the usual hurricanes, say.

No, they turn due to upper level winds and the relative placement of high and low pressure zones in their proximity.

Then I KNOW you don't want to see a hurricane come through !!
This one looks like it will end up south of Mulege.
Cuidad Constitution may be in for another bath.

It looks as if it will hit the coast more than a hundred miles north of Todos Santos and La Paz .....
Overnight it has lightly rained several times and there are the occasional distant lightening strikes.
Good news for some might be bad news for others ....

Woke up at 6am to wind and rain which has absolutely nothing to do with Lowell. Just something that popped up over night. Still raining but very
little wind.
Just back from our swim. Water seemed warmer and it was kinda rough getting in and out but we made. Started raining again the minute we got home

Yes! and Yes, dammit! to both quotes.
Its the water, not necessarily the wind, that does damage here. Neither John nor Julio brought "that much" rain to the town of Mulege, but the water
that came down out of the mountains was something else again.
We did a quick turn-around trip to La Paz a couple days ago for electrical stuff to fix the house. The roads were sketchy between here and there.
Constitution appeared to have been hammered pretty badly, but life was back to normal, just not the roads. The graders were out all along Hwy. 1
working hard to get things safe and better.
We were planning to move back in the house, figuring we could camp there and continue cleaning, but now we're waiting and watching.

It's probably being controlled by HAARP. Maybe some scientist's relative got beat up on in Cabo and he's hammering them. hehehe
It sure is making a weird turn...

Weird
We had rain and clouds most of the day. As I said nothing to do with Lowell who isnt even on the maps I look at.
I just gave up and put last night's load of clothes back into the washing machine. They were way past a fresh water rinse and rinse and rinse.

The radar showed a huge area of moisture coming west from the mainland this morning but it hit shear from the storm and was pulled apart to the south.
Later in the day it looked all clear in Mulege.
Looked like many points south of La Paz probably got a shot of rain.
