Henrietta. The folks down in Baja will be able to handle her. Just another puff of wind and the rain will be appreciated.:)

Cypress that my sentiments exactly. Right now the sat. shows Henriette having difficulty forming, but it has plenty of time in warm water before it hits here.

The latest NHC report has adjusted the track quite a bit to the right.

This looks like a worst case scenario. It is also slowing down, which is the very worst for the Mulege River flooding. I was hoping it would speed right through, with the mountains breaking it up. I had spent all winter and spring restoring my then brand new house....and now this. :(

Today I called some people in Mulege and they weren't even aware that Henrietta had turned. Cabo, Todos Santos, Mulege, Santa Rosalia, San Ignacio....heads up. I wish you/us the best. You have time.....make a plan.

There has been another adjustment to the projected track of Henriette--again further to the right, and the gov't has issued a hurricane watch for the south penninsula.

Maybe Russ can post the actual image again....

She has beeen a weird storm. She doesn't want to be a real hurricane, and she doesn't want to move. They should have named her after my ex wife.

Here's a current view of the actual storm...


This 'loop' shows the actual storm, up to date...you can just make out the 'eye' moving Northwest, and not yet turning 'North' as some of those predictions are showing...we'll just have to wait and see where the winds blow...scarry indeed!

From Baja Insider:

AT 9PM MDT 09/02/07...THE GOVERNMENT OF MEXICO HAS ISSUED A HURRICANE WATCH FOR THE SOUTHERN BAJA PENINSULA FROM LA PAZ SOUTHWARD ON THE EAST COAST...AND FROM SANTA FE SOUTHWARD ON THE
WEST COAST...INCLUDING CABO SAN LUCAS. A HURRICANE WATCH MEANS THAT HURRICANE CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITHIN THE WATCH AREA...GENERALLY WITHIN 36 HOURS.


Information on Tropical Storm Henriette
(Next Update after 3AM MDT)


09AM MDT 09/02/07

Tropical Storm Henriette remains just short of Category 1 Hurricane strength and has slowed to 1/2 of yesterdays forward speed. TS Henriette is currently located near 18.9N 107.0W about 332 miles southeast of Cabo San Lucas. Movement is 305° at 04kts. Central barometric pressure is estimated at 994 and winds are 60kts with gusts to 75kts. Tropical Storm force winds extend out 85 miles. TS Henriette is forecast to become a hurricane in the next 24hrs. Tropical Storm Henriette is now forecast to achieve Category 2 status before making landfall forecast for the Pacific coast of Baja Sur late Tuesday.

This system should be watched closely by those with interests in Baja California Sur. The storm is still moving relatively slowly and forecasting models have a difficult time making predictions on slow moving storms. The current storm track puts landfall near Todos Santos. This puts the most powerful section, the NE quadrant, over Baja from Los Cabos northward beginning early Tuesday.

Residents of Baja Sur should have preliminary preparations for hurricane conditions underway. It is possible much of the southwestern portions of Baja Sur will receive some winds and heavy rain from the passage of this system

Tropical moisture from Henrietta streaming over us here way out in Texas...hope Baja gets some much needed rain without causing too much damage...central Baja was drier than I've seen it in years.

Dark and ominous to the south.
We are in hurricane mode.
Off to get gas, water, etc.
Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
Will decide after the next bulletin whether to put the storm windows up or not...
Whether it was for the weather or already planned, Puerto has pulled the dredge into the marina...way up in the marina. They better do something about all those cranes.
