Question about night winds in San Juanico now
some friends of ours want to camp in a few days in San Juanico and would like to know if it has been windy there...anybody know??
Here it is usually windy around the full moon and maybe that's the case there too??

No one in san juanico is sober or reliable enough to know if its windy after 10am.

when the onshore westerly wind comes up in the afternoon is when the wind blows along the west coast, everywhere. i've never noticed a difference
around the full moon. interesting.....

Wind blew 21mph yesterday. Looks like we're in a windy weather pattern for a while. But... then again...it might be raining. You just never know if
I'm sober OR reliable....

In BCS on the SOC we have noticed a full moon strong wind correlation during the Winter. If you do want wind for sailing full moon tends to be very
reliable indicator among others. The assumptions are that a full moon relates to stronger tides, more water movement and more dynamics relate to a
greater chance for pressure gradients that cause wind.
Interesting that weathermen/woman don't often mention the influence of the moon on weather though it seems to be a reliable indicator as opposed to,
say, Al Gore.

i get the full moon influence on the tidal forces.... i guess the local variables differ widely from place to place.

Wind is created by uneven heating of the earths surface, and the difference in pressure gradients, high and low pressure.....I don't see how the
phase of the moon comes into play..........anybody?? Bueller??

Seems that all you have to do is stagger to the weather station and check the rock..........

The name of the place is: Casitas San Juanico and I got this off their website for you:
Did we mention remote? With sporadic phone connections? The only reliable way to contact us is via email. We've a sturdy satellite link that serves us
well. Email : casitassanjuanico@gmail.com and we'll get back to you .. just as soon as we're done fishing, surfing, beachcombing, napping, etc ...
Just kidding!
the website is WWW.CASITASSANJUANICO.COM
and the hotel is located on the CALLE LA BOCANA, between the main drag and the beach, on the right side.

The casitas BTW have no phones as they are unreliable ...they request that you write per their website. Tom was a very gracious host !!
