Good grief! Is Mulege a storm magnet? They haven't finished cleaning up from the last one. Good luck to everybody down there.

weather


Hang in there guys.... hope you all don't even get wet....

It's clear along the coast here, with a fog bank off shore to the west.. Some high clouds past the fog and higher up.



Most different than yesterday evening and all afternoon

Yeah, I know... I will try and figure out how to reset the date and time...

Another super day, it would appear..... Off to the market, to buy a fat hog and a six pack.... just had a breakfast of chorizo, potatoes, and egg's... with flour .... Say what ever you want... if it weren't for the native peoples of the North and South continents we would still be eating mutton and salted fish... brings back memories of the The Pequod.

Heading out to catch one.... 5'-7' with nice shape, at this time...

looks like the storm has moved over mid baja quicker than we thought. we are now socked in but the rain is how I like it...straight down and not driving in thorugh the windows and doors...only a light south breeze and about a 10' south swell.

It's rained pretty much non-stop in Loreto since 3 a.m. The sky is still dark and heavy, there has been no wind, thunder, or lightning.

I'm hoping it's less in Mulege and Santa Rosalia, but it looks widespread on Bob's map:(

Major part is yet to come.
Doesn't look like it will miss the Mulege/Santa Rosalia and Loreto region. Hope it moves quick, but as of now, only moving at 3mph.

Just in from Mulege


This is what I heard this morning-- good news:

Drizzle in Mulege, electrics scanty.
Good News: downgrade to tropical depression with 4-6 inches of rain only; there are no evacuations going on.

Constitucion under water


Area of Ciudad Constitucion and Insurgentes has received torrential rain for last 24 hours and the area is inundated with several cars and trucks stuck in the water on main Boulevard.
Not much wind so not a lot of destruction are reported. I have no news on traffic on the Peninsular highway but I guess it has been closed due to flooding arroyos.

More heavy rain in the Constitucion area has to be devastating for the agri-business in the area.

Wow - first time I've ever seen a tropical storm where the eye stays in one place and all the rains go in another. I kept looking at the satellite and it looked like it was in the SOC, but looking around here, you sure wouldn't guess it.

The ocean is pounding the rocks outside, the wind is gusty, it's overcast and raining right now. I wonder where this thing is heading? Looks like even the National Hurricane service doesn't even know.

The cooler temps feel wonderful!
