We're driving the Mojave Road westbound on Friday starting at the CA/AZ border, south of Bullhead. We might get to see some hurricane aftermath out
there.

It really wasn't all that bad here in Loreto, the strongest part of the storm only lasted two hours or so and I'm guessing 2-4 inches of rain.
The power is already back on, (a nice surprise) Hope all have a good evening.

looks like it's crossing rather quickly which is great for taking the rain with it...when they slow down and stall is when the water wreaks
havoc...keep the reports coming Russ!
That satellite photo above really demonstrates how we at the heel of the peninsula really stick out into the ocean and storms often just graze our
shores with the outer bands..like fog too...sticking out seems to be a good thing for us! And thank goodness for cooler ocean temps as storms get
tempted across to the other side attracted by the heat.
Newton is a classic storm...locals are always warning...hurricanes can whip up fast and accelerate all of a sudden...and stall and dump alot of
water...or get sucked over to the other side between Todos Santos & Mag Bay.

It seems likely to be following the warm water, right up the SOC.
All that warm water will generate a few more of these before the season ends.

Just off the phone with a local in Mulege. Been raining since about 730AM. Much rain and wind now. Power and cell service still working as of now.
He is concerned about flooding later tonight, but so far no big flood as far as I can tell from here talking with local contact. The river/estuario
is sure to rise some, its now a question of when and how much.
Storm seems to be moving fast and that is good, the desert is going to be plenty green after this!

Yeah, me too. Figure if I go buy cleanup supplies and load them in the rig then Newton will give me a break! We'll see if that worked in the AM!

6 PM __ sorry about spelling in a rush because internet doesn't stay up long now. wind is stronger all the time now and lots of boomer can't see the
lightening thru the rain. All windows and doors are closed now. No obvious leaks yet except in the garage and under the garage doors. but it's still
early in this storm. Got a radio call fro the mountains this morning it was raining and they are worried but safe. I see the internet is out again.
I'll be surprised if the flimsy Excede dish doesn't bend in half. The surf is huge now and I'm worried the boat house doors will be knocked down
again. Hopefully this storm will pause enough to go look before dark. What strikes me as really unusual is the wind all day has come from the North.
That usually doesn't happen until after the hurricane passes and we get the back side. - - - 7 PM 4" of rain and this storm is going to last awhile
