Last year we had John with plenty of wind but little rain. I think this one is the opposite, wont see destructive winds but a lot of rain wich means a
lot more troubles. Anybody living near arroyos should be specially careful.

It is just north of the the Magdalena Bay complex, 5 miles northwest of La Poza Grande, south of Las Barrancas & San Juanico.

10 AM Centenario area
I just took a 30-40 minute run (well, okay, in my car!) from Centenario to Lomas Centenatio...the far end behind the CIB road "you pump" PEMEX, near
Comitan and then back towards La Pax to the "they pump" PEMEX in Chametla...there's a lot of standing water on all the dirt roads; some are already
impassable mud bogs & the sand road in front of the rental PIT is an arroyo; the highway has many places where it's already covered with standing
water road-edge to road-edge. It is still passable, but probably won't be for many more hours. There's a lot more traffic on the highway that I'd
expected! My battery back-up is chirping like a cricket, so our always unstable power supply probably won't last out the storm!

Chirping here too..haven't seen a Cabo or vicinity post for a while so they be without power by now. Steve is out there doing the same reconoiter,
with the soon to be installed generator in the back of the car. Not too ironic. At least this year I am not riding it out with a violently ill dog!
Ever an optimist.

Legs - did you go up the hill to Lomas? Was is passable? I'm here in San Diego wondering how my house is faring, and knowing there's not a damn
thing I can do.
Stay safe, neighbors.

1030, Los Cabos
Situation is pretty much the same as reported earlier this morning. The rain is being blown horizontal from time to time. I would estimate winds at
about 30 to 35 knots. Constant rain. No horizon. The surf is un-friggin believable! However, having said this, were are experiencing 'tropical
storm' conditions right now, not Cat 1 conditions. No, this is not the "big one."
I dawned my rain gear a while ago and took a walk around outside. Our turtle hatching pen is safe for the time being, but the surf is building and
high tide is still 4 hours away. We expect to lose power anytime now. San Jose airport is completely closed, no flights in or out. All roads in and
out of San Lucas and San Jose including the 4 lane between the two have been closed by civil defense (whatever that agency is called - Proyecto
something or other). Only emergency vehicles are being allowed passage.
But everyone is safe and dry in our area for the time being. I'll keep posting every few hours as long as I can get a connection.
Suerte

Todos Santos 11:00 a.m. Raining steady for a few hours but not very hard. Wind not too strong, kind of like a "normal" breezy day. People are driving
around like if it was a normal day. Rivulets and mini-arroyos causing some erosion on our property; we won't get flooding here because we're on the
hilly side of town. I'm sure some outlying neighborhoods are already isolated by high standing water. The storm trajectory is moving to the East so it
looks like Todos Santos will be spared the head-on collision. Our prayers to all those on Henrietta's destructive path.

We need the rain, but I hope it will come down in a manageble amount. Hang on to your hat and suerte everybody.
