Just seeing the edges coming into La Paz, consistent with the sat image. Discussion indicates some weakening in the last 5 hours, knot by knot, let
him chill down.

Hurry up, Judy.
Looks like the rains will hit Cabo intermittently starting this morning.
Please be safe !!

Still no right turn. Good news: hits cooler water, weakens. Bad news: hard to miss Baja now.

From our house, I see one boat at Rancho Leonero, none at Spa, and just a few at Palmas. They are in the process of getting them pulled right now,
Verdugo's are all out already. It is cloudy with a small breeze, water is calm. Preparations are being made, we will probably put the storm boards
back up tomorrow morning.
We filled the vehicles with fuel, and still need to get the gas cans filled for the generator. There are lots of vehicles at the new gas station. The
old gas station is closed.

We are getting it together here on the East Cape too. Cloudy now with a bit of wind on the water, enough to blow out the surf. Waves are actually a
bit smaller today. Yesterday...yesterday was the day at a certain east cape surf spot that will go nameless because I would be lashed at least 9 times
with fresh cut PALM fronds by all the surfets out there.
Double overhead, glassy all day and oh boy did I get some fun mackers! It's good to be alive.
No b-tchin\' in the Baja.

This storm won't come anywhere near Mulege.
It's amazing how a storm that was just yesterday a H5 is already down to a H2 and when it goes by Cabo (more then a 100 miles south) it will be a
tropical storm. Mother nature in action.

Be thankful for steering winds. A storm such as Rick would likely have sustained a higher intensity had it stayed closer to the mainland coast. The
water temp drops quickly as one passes Northwest. Should still have plenty of moisture.

Most everyone pulled their boats today. There is a really good surge at the boat ramp today. A few dinged their boats up when the water retreated and
left their bunks high and dry or wind and surge pushed them off their projected path. BOOM! I hate that!
So, though we aren't looking at rain or storm winds (yet) the swells have had their effect here.

At least for now, perhaps is is safe to say "If it doesn't start with J it will be OK"

That big turn East is still educated conjecture. The storm center continues on the NNW track. Don't say whew just yet. The tip is going to feel this
thing, and someone is going to get a lot of rain. Maybe 200 or so miles of BCS could get drenched.

Supposed to be in Cabo on the 27th, then on to Mazatlan on the 28th, and Puerto Vallerta on the 29th...hopefully great surf and no diversions.
