They say it will most likely hit land as a Cat 2.

We're about 100 miles north of the predicted landfall. I just got my weather station up and running it'll be interesting to see how much wind we get here.

10am and flat calm with a thin cloud cover. Oh, I was told we did get a shower last night. I did watch the light show from 1 to 1:30 and I guess I was sawing some large timber when it came down.
BigWooo, Weather stations are fun to watch during a storm. I have a Davis Pro2 and it's amazing. Have fun. Hope all goes well and no one has major problems during this event. Buena Suerte!
Edit: pic of weather station at 10 am:

We're clearing out the house or putting things up in the attic... this time proactively with time to spare, hopefully... and hopefully it will not be necessary!!

BBP decided to go for it to San felipe today.
the rest of the weekend they are playing by ear and maybe venturing south as far as the leading edge of Norbert's outflow allows.

message to Fishbuck - if you are looking for some fun - bag the Asuncion trip, you'll get wet - but head to SF and party with some fun folks at El cortez. you can get in on the special rate, just say BBP BAM when you check in.

Another pic of my weather station. The winds have picked up out of the ESE and the Barometer is falling. There is a definite increase in the swell and campers on the beach are packing up to head North tomorrow. Our light and thunder show this morning opened their eyes a bit.
