thanks for the onsite report Judy...it would be great to keep them coming for others who live further north to moniter...there are some rather nervous
folks in the Mulege, Chivato area keeping a close eye on this.
Seems like Georgette is very well behaved so far...making the cows happy.

The wind pushed our guanabana tree over which in turn tipped over our chicken cage. But nothing over 20, I would say. The rain has subsided and it
is lightening up a bit. To the west is still pretty dark.

9AM MDT TROPICAL STORM GEORGETTE MOVING NORTH-NORTHWESTWARD TOWARDS CABO SAN LUCAS...
THE GOVERNMENT OF MEXICO HAS ISSUED A TROPICAL STORM WARNING FOR SOUTHERN BAJA CALIFORNIA FROM AGUA BLANCA SOUTHWARD TO CABO SAN LUCAS ON THE WEST
COAST...AND FROM BUENAVISTA SOUTHWARD TO CABO SAN LUCAS ON THE EAST COAST.
Tuesday, September 21, 2010 9:39 AM Tropical Storm Georgette is moving quickly northward about 30 miles south of Cabo San Lucas and is expected to
make landfall very close to Los Cabos in a matter of hours. TS Georgette is just barely a Tropical Storm and is not forecast to strengthen
significantly before making landfall. Heavy rains and strong winds are to be expected across much of the tip of the baja peninsula through the day
today.
At 9AM Tropical Storm Georgette located near 22.5N 109.9W and is currently moving 335° at 8kts. Central barometric pressure is estimated at 1001Mb and
winds are 35kts with gusts to 45kts, making Georgette just barely a tropical storm. Tropical storm force winds extend out 45 miles in all but the SW
quadrant of this storm.
TS Georgette is forecast to make landfall this morning between Cabo San Lucas and Todos Santos and move north across the peninsula just west of La
Paz. Once over land the system is expected to lose its punch rapidly and be reduced to a tropical depression by late today. Since Georgette is over
marginally warm waters no significant strengthening is expected before making landfall.
By late this evening Georgette should be reduced to a tropical depression and be located
Tropical Storm Georgette formed on the morning of September 21 from an area of disturbed weather that had moved WNW from mainland Mexico.
At 7AM the port captains of Cabo San Lucas and La Paz have officially closed the ports.
The next update to this information will follow the 12PM release from the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida.

This morning, I recorded wind gusts to 35 mph in San Jose. Steady winds were 25 mph. I expect we got 3 to 4 inches of rain in the last 24 hours. At
this time the storm appears to be breaking up in the east. At 12:30pm, winds are light and the ocean is starting to lay down.
Lots of local flooding in the San Lucas area. Not sure about San Jose.

Just got dark again and it looks as if we will get some more rain.
We have not seen the wind that OXXO did. It is dead calm right now.
The seas here are still white capped and angry looking.

Tues. 3:30pm
After a brief respite around noon, the wind has clocked 180 degrees form ESE to WNW. Average wind speed on my anemometer is 25 to 30mph this
afternoon. Rain has been lighter this afternoon than this morning
Seas are almost flat compared to this morning because of the change in wind direction. Temperatures are in the mid to high 80's.
I live about 10 miles from Judy. Judy I bet you are happy with the new bridge! I drove on it for the first time last Sunday. What a difference! Is
that a new PEMEX going up next door to you?

10 miles can definitely make a difference. It has never gotten over 75 on my porch today. The seas are still angry. Looks like we are getting ready
to get some more rain.
OXXO-shame on you for not stopping in.

Loreto
Off and on light rain in Nopoló all morning, then heavier about 1:30 and we left for Loreto. Very light intermittent rain here since.
Certainty is the child of ignorance, knowledge is the mother of doubt. Question everything!

I dont have an anemometer
So do any of you know what MPH it takes to blow a porta-toilet over.
That would be how strong it blew here

Had breakfast at the Dock Restaurant in La Paz this AM & there was a steady stream of rigs with empty trailers waiting to pull smallish boats out
of the marina. I thought that was overreaction based on the AM forecasts, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry!

Rained here all night, most likely several inches and still coming down pretty good. I'm sure that the arroyos are running and the road to Todos
Santos is impassable. The electricity is off.

Rain started sometime around midnight in Centenario & just stopped running out of my gargolas sometime around 5 AM. It's a refreshing 72 degrees
outside at 6:30 AM local time, with absolutely no hint of any wind or breeze.
