What happened to all the BAJA storms this year...
Almost mid August and no talk of any rain, wind or clouds anywhere. I don't think any of the south swells so far have been from Baja storms either.
Who has been watching the weather down there?

Possibly effect from transition from el nino to la nina. Expected to be a stronger than normal la nina this year, so could be very windy in Baja this
winter. If you check a North Amercican satellite image, you might note a long string of cloud stretching from mid-Mexico all the way up up to Alberta.
With unusually unstable weather conditions up here, we have had nearly daily thunderstorm or tornado watches, warnings, etc. There was a major flood
and later the most expensive hail storm damage ever recorded in S. Alberta this summer. Perhaps mother nature took a far north vacation!
Anyhoo...the nina/nino transition phase is said to be occuring until near the end of August.
We are hoping the la nina patterns hold true, as we are looking for lots of wind in Baja this winter!
When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

A few places got drenched yesterday in Baja Sur. It has been unusually cool in Socal all summer. Much better to work in.

Whow Y'All, The Hurricane Season ain't over yet. I won't sit comfortable about my old Palapa roof until end of October. Usually the big hits are in
Sept., so we still got time to get into trouble.
Meanwhile, I have heard reports from my kite-surfing daughter and her buds that the winds have been better for their sport this summer than they were
all last winter. In July I think they had something like 28 days of good winds to go play in, they are thrilled!
Still, looks like it is heating up down there, like I said; it ain't over till the Fat Lady sings and that generally is Nov., when I come home.

I remember the last strong La Nina in San Clemente(1999-ish)...couldn't sit outside in the summer evening without a sweater and the ocean was low
60s...brrr.
I'd be happy to share the sweltering weather we've had in fort worth since May 15th---over 90 everyday except for a few thunderstorms to cool it down
temporarily.

Heard a resort owner in the East Cape report recently that the air temps that would normally be in the high 90's were averaging in the high
80's...unusually low. Water temps were reported to be averaging lower than normal. This may blunt hurricanes and send them out rather than up the
coast.

The NHC said that the one of the lulls between named storms in the Eastern Pacific this year was one of the longest on record.
EP storms generally tend to head West until September/October when they start to turn North.

I'm truly hoping for the best. But just remember that Hurricane Jimena didn't make landfall on Baja until September 2.
