Jimena ~ Punta Chivato


It's almost 5PM and I thought I show some before shots. And then try to add more as she arrives and passes. Providing I don't loose my satellite connection.

Russ, Thanks. Doesn't look too bad. It's gonna probably get a little worse. The storm has dropped down to about 120 MPH, not good, but better than 140 MPH. Good luck. Keep us posted.

As the storm continues to weaken, here's hoping this turns out to be a non-event.

We sincerely hope that we will be repairing holes in our walls from where the plywood was put up and simply saying, gees, that was close.

Non-event would be a good thing.

Russ, those are really nice photos.

Thank you
Diane

Russ, thanx too for all your communication. Those pics are a lil soothing, but some "Need Soap" fishing pics would be more encouraging!

Wed~9/2


Woken up around 2AM. Thunder Lightning, strong wind & heavy rain. Scrambled to close the doors and windows and got soaked.... of course. By the time I got the coffe on, mopped the floor and turned on the computer I thought my weather station took a lighting strike cuz there was no wind, thunder, lightning or rain. That storm cell was short lived. It's close to 5 now and the wind is 5 to 10mph Thunder & lightning just now amping up but the dog prefers it out side in the 77º coolness compared to 89º inside. Got the fan outside blowing in on me.

Thanks for the updates Russ. Can you see the mountains to west? Hope the rain is not bad enough to flood Mulege again. I suppose the road in to Chivato will be washed out soon. Hope you have enough beer to wait out the storm. In the 4th picture you posted last it looks like there is a sail or something in the water to the south. Maybe a kite boarder? Thanks again.

Russ, Good idea. A storm churns things up and brings in lots of fish from parts unknown. Awaiting the fishing report. Just be sure the storm has moved on.:biggrin:
