After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
. Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see scattered fluffys all over the place. That low over Sonora has band of clouds in a counterclockwise swirl around it and they are extending south to Santa Rosalia. So from time to time this morning the northern Sea and perhaps as far south as Concepcion Bay will be seeing passing fluffys.
Looking to the south we have a nice Pineapple Express bringing a mix of whispys and fluffys to the cape area and south along the Riviera to about Manzanillo this morning. This will continue all day and these clouds have some dark bottoms so it looks like could be seeing some rain today.
Looking south to the Tehuantepec: It looks like a crossing window for the next two days.
Looking at the ITCZ I can see a couple of weak lows out about 135 that are contributing to the cloud production that the Pineapple Express is picking up and sending toward Baja this morning.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where that cold wet storm has almost moved out of the area into northern sonora. It will still impact the southwest through tonight, bringing periods of valley rain and potentially significant mountain snow, as well as much cooler temps.
As this system passed to the east high pressure will fill over the southwest. The bar there is currently ballpark 1016 and should increase to the 1024 ranges within the next 24 hours. This will be giving us enough of a gradient to have a day of brisk northerlies. Then tomorrow the northern Sea will be light and the brisk winds will be in the central Sea.
So today here in Baja we should have some fluffys passing over and winds in the 20 knot ranges south to about Concepcion Bay. The Riviera will have pretty much solid overcast most of the day today. Right now it looks like Wednesday the entire Sea will be back to our moderate winter northerlies.
Today’s sunrise temps in the northern and central Sea were all in the high 50 and the daytimes highs will be in the high 60 today. The southern Sea a bit warmer. Here in the cove it was definitely sweatshirt weather this morning.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a band of broken clouds circulating counterclockwise around that closed low over Yuma right now extending down into the northern Sea. I can also see some fluffys here and there throughout the Sea.
I noted that the northern Sea has been gusting to 30 most of the night and the central Sea gusting to 18 all night with northwesterlies. It looks like it is starting to lay down a bit now as the front moves to the east.
Looking now at the other end of the Sea: Starting yesterday afternoon a light plume of the Pineapple Express reached central Baja and since then we have had a broken band of a mix of whispys and fluffys passing over. The plume is swinging to the south and this morning it is pretty much centered over the southern crossing. Along with this there are also broken bands of clouds moving up from the ITCZ that will appear along the Riviera today. It looks to me that the central Sea will be seeing mostly sunshine. The northern Sea and the Riviera will be seeing passing fluffys today.
Looking south now to the Tehuantepec where trade winds continue to funnel through the isthmus and the winds are still just below gale force, say 30 knots. They will diminish by tomorrow to the 20 knot ranges and less on Tuesday.
Looking further south to the ITCZ: I can see a lot of convection along the ITCZ all the way out to the western Pacific. There is a northeastern flow and all this convection is moving directly toward Mexico. Water vapor imagery is not showing a lot of moisture in these clouds but I noted that several plumes could produce a sprinkle or two.
Also embedded in the ITCZ are a couple of weak lows that are just increasing the cloud production there.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where that cold wet storm is now over northern Sonora however it will still be bringing snow down to 4,500 ft today. Sierra Vista could get a couple of inches and the higher elevations a foot or more.
Yesterday I said the storm was a fast mover as it was being driven by a 90 mph jet stream. Well that jet disappeared and the storm slowed down and is running about 12 hours behind my guess.
I have been looking at the winds in the northern Sea this morning and around 1am they were still seeing gusts to 25. Currently the winds appear to be lying down and the gusts are in the 10-12 knot ranges from the northwest. At my palapa I have been having gusts in the 15-20 knot ranges all night and since 4am the gusts have dropped to the 8-10 knot ranges.
So with this wealth of information here is what it looks like today.
Not much of a gradient in the Sea today so it looks like light to moderate northwesterlys today and as the high fills in to the north of us tomorrow brisk northwesterlys fro the Sea tomorrow. Temps today in the northern Sea in the high 60s. Central Sea low 70s: Southern Sea high 70s.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I see no evidence of a Pineapple Express in the Eastern Pacific Basin. However, well out in the Pacific, water vapor imagery is showing a moisture plume feeding the Pacific storm that is being driven by a subtropical jet, but no moisture is headed our way from the south.
The northern Sea is seeing the southern swing of that Pacific storm. They will most likely see some rain accumulations as far south as La Bay today and perhaps as far south as Santa Rosalia and San Carlos.
South to about Puerto Escondido could see some whispys later this morning. This is a rather fast moving front and it looks to me that this afternoon most of the Sea will be seeing sunshine.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera: The will see a few fluffy passing over the Mazatlan area and Michael reported sprinkles there. These clouds should be gone later this morning. The heavy overcast they have seen for the past several days has passed to the east. The rest of the Riviera should be seeing abundant sunshine today.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec: High pressure in the western Caribbean is weakening and gale force winds will diminish to less than gale force later today and be in the 20 knot ranges by Sunday
Evening and Monday. Right now a tentative window is opening for early next week.
Not much going on along the ITCZ this morning, and looking around the rest of the Eastern Pacific Basin I can’t see any hurricanes, tropical storms or tropical depressions. Mostly high pressure in the basin with a single weak 1008 low about 8 north, and that’s about it.
So looking north now the west coast of America where that big honk’n cold front has moved down the west coast in the past 24 hours and is now poised to enter Arizona. It has been and will continue to be a snow maker. High wind advisories are still up for most of the west coast including inland. The Sacramento delta is forecast to have 30-50 mph winds today. The storm has also been a lightning producer as far south as San Diego.
For the southwest: The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch. This storm will bring valley rain and mountain snow down to 4,000 feet to southeast Arizona this weekend.
Back down here is Baja the northern Sea looks like it could get some showers today as well as have some gusterly winds. I have noted that the northern Sea has been having 15-25 knot gusts all night. The rest of the Sea will see moderate southerlies today along with mostly sunshine.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks like that band of cloud that has been over the Baja peninsula has moved a bit to the east and south very slowly. The main plume looks like it is now south of the cape and blanketing Mazatlan to about Manzanillo this morning. The Sea looks like it has a few whispys here and there but otherwise pretty much cloud free this morning.
So along the Riviera it will be cloudy today as this band of clouds very slowly moves southeast. I would expect that from Mazatlan to Manzanillo will be overcast all day and it looks like some of the clouds have dark bottoms so a sprinkle or two is possible.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec. I need to stop here a second. As most of you know I rebroadcast my weather via tape, on VHF after the net and at Thanksgiving dinner in town last night three people asked me where the Tehuantepec was, so for them here is the answer.
It is the narrow isthmus of land between the southern tip of Mexico and Guatemala. The Caribbean on the east side and the Eastern Pacific Basin on the west. When you have high pressure in the western Caribbean and low pressure in the Pacific you have big winds in the isthmus. Wind like water flows downhill, from high to low. This morning the bar in the western Pacific is 1020. The bar on the Pacific side is 1010. That’s a 10 mb gradient for a very short distance and the winds will be honk’n today. Storm force winds (that’s 55-73 mph) are forecast for today. Folks on the water think in knots and that would be 48-63 knots. The winds should be below gale force (that’s about 35 knots tomorrow and around 20 knots on Sunday.
So endith Tehuantepec 101.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where as I mentioned earlier a cold low has moved down the coast into California and is forecast to move into the Great Basin tomorrow bringing cooler temps and rain to the deserts and snow in the higher elevations of Arizona this weekend.
Back down here in Baja we should be seeing sun finally today. Temps in the mid to high 70s along with light to moderate winds.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that plume of the Pineapple slow-freighter that blanketed the central and southern Sea with clouds yesterday is slowly moving off to the east, and is mostly over Sonora right now.
There will still be some whispys this morning; however by the time you sit down for turkey the skies should be clear. Currently the plume extends from about Santa Rosalia south to Puerto Vallarta. It looks like Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta will be seeing this plume until late this afternoon then it will clear.
So clearing skies later this morning for most of us, and clear skies tomorrow for the entire peninsula and the Mexican Riviera.
Looking further south now to the Tehuantepec: Satellite imagery showed 30 knot winds early this morning and building. Gale force winds are expected by mid morning and 50 knots winds by tonight. The winds should diminish to gale force by tomorrow night and Saturday morning.
So we have a nice Tehuantepecker brewing down there and right now the first window looks like early next week. Maybe. We’ll see.
Ok looking around the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning. A high pressure dome out in the Pacific, off the California and Baja coast, is bending a plume of the Pineapple Express over the top of it into the Great Northwest this morning. This plume of the Pineapple Express is honk’n and being driven by a 125 mph jet. All this tropical moisture mixed with the cold front moving through the area will be bringing some changes to the west this weekend that I’ll get to in a second.
Under this high pressure dome, to the south, is our Pineapple slow-freighter that we are seeing the remnants of this morning.
So looking now to the west coast of America where that strong low system currently in the Seattle area, will move into the Great Basin tomorrow and dip into the southwest this weekend. It will be bringing cooler temps and along with some rain to the deserts and snow to the higher elevations of Arizona.
Back down here in Baja on Turkey Day we should be seeing clearing skies later this morning. Temps should be up a few degrees from yesterday. The winds in the northern Sea will continue to be brisk but the central and southern Sea should be seeing very moderate northerlies today.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 73s Y'all

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report
It is with a heavy heart that I read the following report from NASA.
Several hours ago, shortly past 7:00Z today (23Nov), telemetry received from QuikSCAT indicates that the antenna rotation rate has dropped to zero and remains at zero. The QuikSCAT operations team will be meeting later this morning, but in all likelihood this is the end of the nominal mission".

Launched in 1999, the QuikSCAT satellite became one of the most useful and controversial meteorological satellites ever to orbit the Earth. Forecasters world-wide came to rely on QuikSCAT wind data to issue timely warnings and make accurate forecasts of tropical and extratropical storms, wave heights, sea ice, aviation weather, iceberg movement, coral bleaching events, and El Niño. Originally expected to last just 2-3 years, QuikSCAT made it past ten, a testament to the skill of the engineers that designed the satellite.
Congress has not yet approved funds to build a new bird, and my options now are the navy’s Windsat and the European Ascat and both satellites fall far short of the data I was able to get from the Qscatt.
So my morning forecasts will most likely not include “Last night’s winds” anymore.


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that the Pineapple Express, well it’s not really an express this morning, it’s more like a slow freighter. Anyway, late yesterday afternoon the Pineapple slow-freighter moved ashore into central Baja then spread out to include the entire peninsula and the northern Riviera.
These clouds are emanating from an area of moderate convection between 140 and 150. With no jet stream support they are slowly meandering toward the Baja coast in somewhat broken patches. This current broken plume will most likely be with us most of the day then there will be about a 24 hour Thanksgiving break and I can see that the next one should pass over Friday.
Water vapor imagery is showing some fluffys in the plume with dark bottoms so a sprinkle or two is not out of the question.
OK, looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning: It looks like Mazatlan and the Puerto Vallarta area will seeing some cloudiness today as well. The rest of the Riviera south should be seeing mostly sunshine.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec. Another Tehuantepecker gale event is expected to start tonight as a strong cold front has pushed into the southern Gulf of Mexico. Winds will increase this morning and are forecast to increase to gale force by tonight and continue through Friday with a possible window this weekend.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where things are looking pretty good for a pleasant Thanksgiving. High pressure and dry air populate the western conus with the exception of, of course, the Great Northwest where they WILL NOT be doing any outdoor BBQs tomorrow.
Today we still have an enough of a gradient from the Great Basin to the Sea of Cortez to continue to have some gusterly north westerly’s in the northern and central Sea today.
Tomorrow the high over Idaho will have moved off to the east and the bar in the basin will be in the 1016 ranges. So my wind forecast for Thanksgiving is: Northern Sea: 18-20. Central Sea 12-16, and the southern Sea 10-12.
Today just a tad less wind than yesterday. Still with a north western flavor. It should lay down late this afternoon.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report

It is with a heavy heart that read the following report from NASA.
Several hours ago, shortly past 7:00Z today (23Nov), telemetry received from QuikSCAT indicates that the antenna rotation rate has dropped to zero and remains at zero. The QuikSCAT operations team will be meeting later this morning, but in all likelihood this is the end of the nominal mission".

Launched in 1999, the QuikSCAT satellite became one of the most useful and controversial meteorological satellites ever to orbit the Earth. Forecasters world-wide came to rely on QuikSCAT wind data to issue timely warnings and make accurate forecasts of tropical and extratropical storms, wave heights, sea ice, aviation weather, iceberg movement, coral bleaching events, and El Niño. Originally expected to last just 2-3 years, QuikSCAT made it past ten, a testament to the skill of the engineers that designed the satellite.
Congress has not yet approved funds to build a new bird, and my options now are the navy’s Windsat and the European Ascat and both satellites fall far short of the data I was able to get from the Qscatt.
So my morning forecasts will most likely not include “Last night’s winds” anymore.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see where a few fluffys passed over the Sea yesterday afternoon. These came from the Pacific where there is what look more like a fog bank that is moving close to shore during the day and backing off at night. Right now it looks like it is about 30 miles off shore. So we may see some of these fluffys pass over us again today.
In general the Sea this morning is pretty much free of any clouds.
There is a Pineapple Express riding on top of these clouds that is about 500 miles off the central Baja coast that looks like the plume will be passing over the central and southern peninsula later today, perhaps later this morning.
Looking south to the Riviera: It is pretty much clear right now but off shore from Cabo Corrienties south there is a branch of the Pineapple Express that will be sending a broken, scattered band of whispys over the southern Riviera today.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec it’s about 15 this morning and will build about 10K tomorrow and another 10 on Thursday to reach gale force by then. It looks right now that this Tehuantepecker will last up into the weekend.
Taking a quick look at the ITCZ this morning. Not a lot of convection until you get out to about 140 where the Pineapple Express is picking up the moisture there and sending it northeast toward Baja.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where at the top of this image I can see that the Pacific Northwest is raining today and it looks like it will continue through the weekend. All these storms will move across the top of the western conus through Thanksgiving providing the Great Basin south with clear skies for this period along with a small warming trend.
Southern California will be clear and gusterly today. The southwest will be seeing lots of sun through thanksgiving with slightly warmer temps by then. With the pressure gradient it will be also gusterly. Friday a cold front will dip down from the north cooling things off again.
Back on this side of the border in Baja it will be a tad gusterly in the northern Sea south to about the northern crossing. This is not a big Norther and the 18-20k winds should not extend south past Concepcion Bay today.
So lots of sun: a big gusterly: and temps in the mid to high 70s in the Sea today.

Voice to Text……….
.looking down into the Sea this morning I can see the Sea is pretty much cloud free. The northern Riviera is still seeing some whispys this morning. Looking way to the southwest I can see that there is a still a lot of convection moving up from the western tropics and from along the ITCZ about 140. This morning we have a 70 mph jet to drive these clouds to the northeast: AKA the Pineapple Express.
High pressure off the southern California/ Northern Baja coast is keeping this plume to the south of the cape. Water Vapor imagery is showing the moisture in the plume to be diminishing so the plume will contain mostly whispys as it passed over the Riviera today.
That’s about it for sky conditions. As far as winds: They will pick up a bit, but not much, today and then tomorrow it looks like the northern Sea and the Sonoran side will start to see some 20-24 knot winds through Wednesday.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where that Pacific storm has moved off to the east. High pressure is filling in over the western conus and will bring warming temps and clear skies through Thanksgiving.
Except the Great Northwest where the storm window is still open and they will continue to have front after front move through bringing rain to the valleys and snow to the mountains through the end of the week.
For the southwest a gentle warming trend will began as high pressure builds over the southwest. By Thanksgiving they should be seeing highs in the 80s around Tucson. Today about 75.
Back down here in Baja we will be having clear skies. The Riviera will be seeing passing whispys today. The winds in the Sea will remain light to moderate today and then start to pick up in the northern Sea tomorrow and it looks like they could be back to moderate northerlies on Thanksgiving.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning, it’s about like yesterday with some morning whispys near the shores but otherwise the Sea if pretty much cloud free.
Down along the ITCZ the only convection there is out about 150 and the northeast flow is picking up some of these clouds and drifting them toward the southern tip of Baja. For the past 24 hours Cabo to about Manzanillo has seen these light whispys pass over. This broken, scattered plume again does not have any support from a jet stream so these clouds are sort of meandering toward the cape. The jet stream forecast does not indicate a jet for the next 24 hours out of the western Pacific so it looks like this pattern will continue all day.
Looking now south to the Tehuantepec: Qscatt imagery is showing 20-25 knot winds funneling into the gulf of Tehuantepec this morning. They are forecast to decrease below 20 knots tomorrow. Moderate winds are forecast for the gulf of Papagayo today.
Not a lot going on in our hood today so looking now north to the west coast of America where as I mentioned earlier a big honk’n storm is battering the coast of Oregon and Washington.
Going back to my notes from the bar charts: As the storm moves east later today and early tomorrow the Great Basin will fill in with a ballpark 1016 high. By late Monday into Tuesday the pressure will increase to about 1024.
So if that pans out, that’s really not a huge gradient. Here is what I think. Today will be about like yesterday. Monday should see a slight increase in winds and then on Tuesday it looks like the northern Sea will see winds to about 20. I’m a bit out of my comfort zone with the Tuesday forecast so don’t chisel this in stone. Remember by trade, I’m a beach bum.
OK, moving on to something easer: It looks like today will be a delightful day temps up a bit from yesterday along with light to moderate northerlies.

Before moving on to today’s smile. I sometime do requests for folks that are leaving the beach and going home. Pat and Mo wanted to know what the weather was like in hometown Missoula Montana. Well, this morning it was 26 degrees and snowing and it should warm up to nice warm 34 this afternoon.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a few fluffys here and there on the Baja side close to shore, but in general the Sea is pretty much cloud free……except for the cape where from about La Paz south there has been a broken light veil of whispys passing over it for the past 24 hours.
These are coming from convection along the ITCZ which is stretched out along 8 north this morning. There is not a supporting jet stream but just a north eastern flow that is sending these clouds north and when they encounter the high pressure dome between California and Hawaii the flow bends to the east and is sending this broken band of scattered whispys over the cape and south to about Cabo Corrienties this morning.
This looks like it will continue for most of the day.
Looking south now to the Tehuantepec where the winds have diminished, however they will pick up through the weekend to the 20K ranges.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where the upper portion of this image is showing rain and snow and the lower portion mostly clear skies.

Rain this morning from about Eureka north along the west coast. Tomorrow it will drop down the central California and the southern edge of the front could bring sprinkles as far south as La La Land.
The Cascades are getting snow today and tomorrow the Sierras will get snow.
For the southwest: Dry weather is expected to continue at least through Thanksgiving. The weak southern portion of the fronts moving through to the north will cause temps to drop a bit but sunny days and clear nights are forecast.
As these front pass to the east high pressure aloft from the Pacific will build in the southwest and temps are forecast to be well above normal.
Back across the border in Baja we should be have a typical November day. Moderate northerly’s in the Sea today. Lots of sun and the temps will be in the mid to high 70s for Baja and mid 80s for the Riviera.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning: It is pretty much cloud free as well as along the Mexican Riviera.
There is a weak subtropical jet (aka the Pineapple Express) moving up from the western tropics that is picking up some, but not a lot, of moisture along the ITCZ this morning. The plume extends from the ITCZ about 150W toward central Baja. The leading edge of the plume is currently off the Baja coast, and I’m sort of guesstimating, that it will be sending mostly whispys over most of Baja later this afternoon.
Taking a look now south to the Tehuantepec: It looks like the next 2 days the winds will be around 20 knots and Sunday perhaps up to 30.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where the big honk’n Pacific storm moving into the west coast this morning is today’s headliner.
Along with the rain and snow, as I mentioned earlier, high winds are a major concern. Wind to 70 mph are forecast for the Sierras and the Sierra ridges could see gust to 130 mph. That’s hurricane force winds.
The valleys in northern California will see several inches of rain in the next 24 hours.
For the southwest dry weather is expected through the middle of next week as a series of systems pass to the north. Temps will cool slightly by Sunday with just a few whispys passing, but for the most part clear nights and sunny days are expected for the next week.
Back down here in Baja we should be having another Chamber of Commerce day. Lots of sun along with very moderate winds. Temps should be in the mid to high 70s today in Baja and mid to high 80s along he Riviera.
Before moving on to today’s smile I wanted to mention that you can get a copy of my weather on sailmail. I’ll give you a second to grab a pen to write down this information. You start of just like you were requesting a grib file. I normally have it posted by 8:30.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a few fluffys here and there mostly around the cape area. There is a Pineapple Express plume this morning supported by a weak upper level jet that is sending a broad, scattered band of clouds toward the cape area and south to about Cabo Corrienties. Water vapor imagery is not showing a lot of moisture in this plume.
The rest of the Riviera is pretty much cloud free.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec: The qscatt showed up to 35 knot winds there is morning but the winds are forecast to diminish this morning to the 20-25 knot ranges and for the next three days should be in those ranges.
Looking further south to the ITCZ: Just very light convection with an eastern flow.
Taking a quick look around the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning I can see a mix of whispys and fluffys scattered out between here and Hawaii this morning.
That’s about it for our hood, so looking north now to the west coast of America where at the top of this image is that storm that is moving into the Great Northwest this morning. This storm and the next more potent storm, due in tomorrow will be bringing rain as far south as San Francisco and Snow to the Sierras starting tomorrow. Heavy rain is forecast for the upper Sacramento valley along with winds to 40 mph.
Over in the Great Basin high pressure is keeping the skies clear and rather chilly.
For the southwest today: Clear skies and building high pressure today. When the storms pass through to the north on Saturday the pressure gradient will tighten up and cause some breezy conditions in southwest Arizona. Meantime not a lot of wind along with clear days and nights.
Back down on this side of the border in Baja: Sunrise temps were in the low to mid 60s this morning. Daytime highs should be in the mid 70s for Baja and high 80s for most of the Riviera today. The cape area and the northern Riviera could see a few fluffys pass over today.
Sounds like a Chamber of Commerce November day.
Finally I know my forecast has mostly winds with a northern component but the chicken feathers and the crystal ball were showing a southern component for the winds in the Sea today. We’ll see?


Thursday, November 19th. Lots of sun. Not much wind. Daytime highs in the mid 70s for Baja. Mid to high 80 for the Riviera.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a few fluffys passing over central Baja this morning. They are coming from the western tropics aka the Pineapple Express but not supported by a jet stream so these clouds are just sort of moseying across the Eastern Pacific Basin toward Baja. We won’t see many today but a few will pass over.
Speaking of the Pineapple Express I noted that this morning the TV forecasters in Seattle are calling today’s storm to be supported by the Pineapple Express. Satellite imagery was not showing a Pineapple Express this morning and so I did a bit of checking, and Doug McCollor, a forecaster with British Columbia Hydro, said that this rain event is not a true Pineapple Express, since the airflow is more west-to-east, rather than from the southwest. I stuck a little feather in my headband for that little bit of detective work.
I digress. Back to the satellite images and looking south to the Mexican Riviera. There are a few whispys moving up from the ITCZ that will be passing over the Riviera from about Manzanillo to Acapulco today.
Looking down at the ITCZ this morning this is not a lot of convection until you get out to about 140 where you run into those clouds moving up from the western tropics.
Looking now at the Tehuantepec: There is still a Tehuantepecker brewing there that will be diminishing below gale force by this afternoon and in the 20-25 ranges tomorrow and less than 20 on Friday. So we could be seeing a window this weekend.
Looking around the rest of the Eastern Pacific Basin I can see a mix of whispys and fluffys between here and Hawaii that have moved up from the south.
That’s about it for out hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where high pressure will be filling in the western conus later today and tomorrow as that weak low exits to the east. It looks like with the exception of the storms moving through Oregon, Washington, and points east the entire west coast and southwest will be cloud free tonight and tomorrow.
Back down here in Baja: Still some lumps in the northern crossing from last night center winds but the Sea looks like it will have very moderate winds today. Tomorrow and Friday looks like great days to make a northern crossing.
Daytime highs in the low to mid 70 for the Sea, high 80s for the Riviera. Abundant sunshine for all.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a few fluffys hear and there but in general the Sea looks to be cloud free.
There is a weak broken-pattern Pineapple Express this morning that is sending a light veil of clouds toward the cape. High pressure to the north is bending the flow back toward the Riviera and it looks like from about Puerto Vallarta to Manzanillo they will be seeing some whispys today. The cape could also see a whispy or two pass over them as well.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where qscatt imagery this morning showed the beginning to the next Tehuantepecker. The winds area forecast to build today to gale force winds through Thursday due to a strong cold front running thought the Gulf of Mexico and the bay of Campeche. Also the winds in the gulf of Papagayo will be building to the 20-25 knot ranges later this morning.
Looking around the rest of the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning: The ITCZ is fairly quiet this morning and there are just some whispys between here and Hawaii this morning.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where the top of this image will be seeing rain and snow all week. These storms will dip down into northern California as well. Lake Tahoe will see snow at lake level tomorrow.
The southwest will see mostly sunshine today and chilly nights. The storms passing to the north will not have much affect on the southwest this week.
Back down here in Baja I noted that all the reporting stations were showing less than 10 knots of wind since midnight. I also noted the sunrise temps dropped a degree or two again this morning. Here at El Burro Cove the pool temp has been hanging in there at about 75 degrees for more than a week. We should start to see the water temperature cooling a bit this week. The average pool temps here in the Cove for November is 73 degrees.
So today it looks like moderate winds. Still a bit gusterly in some locations. Temps will remain cool and in the mid 70s today for most locations in the Sea. The Riviera: mid to high 80s again today.
Today looks like a very nice November day and tomorrow looks like it will be a great November day.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that it is pretty much free of any clouds. Well there are a few fluffys here and there but that is it.
Well off to the southwest I can see the Pineapple Express is starting up again with an 80-85 knot jet driving a wide band of whispys toward the Riviera this morning. It is clear there now but it looks like from about Puerto Vallarta south should see some whispys this afternoon.
Looking south to the Tehuantepec: A strong cold front in the southern gulf of Mexico will funnel through the Tehuantepec isthmus with 20-30 knot winds today and tonight increasing to gale force by tomorrow night then below gale force by Wednesday evening. So unpleasant conditions for the next three days in the Tehuantepec.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where that big honk’n high over Colorado is still providing the gradient to give us 20-30 knot winds in the Sea today. The good news is that the pressure in the Great Basin will be in the 1016 ranges tomorrow reducing the gradient to almost nothing. We may get some winds tonight but tomorrow the Sea should be moderate then Wednesday light winds are forecast.
Taking a quick look to the top of this image: The storm track is open for the Great Northwest. A series of increasing stronger storms are forecast to bring heavy rain as far south as northern California and snow to the Sierras down to about 3500 ft. A stronger system is due in Thursday. Southern California will be cool and clear today.
The southwest will be cool and clear today. Overnight low in the high 30s and daytime highs reaching the mid 70s.
Back down here in Baja: Well, it will be big-time gusterly for one more day especially in the northern and central sea. We could be seeing some gustily conditions tonight as well. But today we’ll have mostly clear skies and our afternoon temps should get up to the low 70s today.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that the Pineapple Express is not with us this morning.
Yesterday I had no less than three people ask me what the heck is the Pineapple Express. So, briefly it is a layman’s non-technical term for a sub tropical jet that originates in the western tropics in our fall and winter months and heads northeast. Viewed from a satellite it is seen as a rather narrow band of moisture laden clouds.
Depending on a number of factors the path can extend as far north as British Columbia where it can cause torrential rain and heavy snowfall and when it finally passes over the Rockies it becomes drained of moisture and is the now called a Chinook or Chinook winds.
Back along that Baja peninsula it has normally not picked real lot of moisture yet and what we see are mostly a plume of whispys that make our Baja mornings famous for the color in the sunrises.
When the Pineapple Express passes over Baja or the Riviera the jet continues across Mexico into the Gulf of Mexico and up into the United States. Normally paralleling the eastern seaboard and then winding up around the Great Lakes. Quite often spawning storms along the way.
So meteorologists would call it a sub tropical jet. I’m not a meteorologists and I like and use the layman’s term Pineapple Express.
So endity Pineapple Express 101.
I digress. Where was I, oh yes I can’t see the Pineapple Express this morning. No jet there this morning to pick up that subtropical moisture. I can see just some isolated fluffys around the Sea this morning.
Looking over at the Riviera there has not been any clouds over there for the past 24 hours.
Looking south to the ITCZ: Not much going on there this morning just some light convection.
Taking a look at the Tehuantepec area: I have been saying that tomorrow should be the opening of a window to cross. That has been changed by the development of a cold front in the gulf that the models are showing will produce NE winds to 25K by tonight and increase to gale force in 72 hours. So be advised the forecast has changed.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America. Build high pressure and relatively low pressure down here will be the cause of gusterly conditions today and tomorrow and perhaps Tuesday. The isobars are starting to stack up and it looks like will give us about an 8-10 mb gradient for the Sea today. Interesting as I say this I’m looking at my barometer and it has gone from 1002 yesterday afternoon to almost 1016 this morning and rising. Be interesting to see when it starts to drop.
So today and tonight and tomorrow Gusterly conditions. Daytime highs in the high 70s. I noted that most sunrise temps were down a few degrees this morning as well. Look for tomorrow morning to do the same.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see the Pineapple Express is still with us and had taken aim on the center of the Baja peninsula. The veil is a bit lighter than yesterday and we should be seeing more whispys than fluffys today. The extremes are about Santa Rosalia to La Paz.
There are also some scattered fluffys off the Mexican Riviera coast that will be drifting ashore today, mostly from about Cabo Corrienties to Mazatlan. The Tehuantepec has laid down but still lumpy. Monday should be a good day to start a crossing.
Today should be about like yesterday with some whispys passing over and temps in the mid 80s in most locations.
Now tomorrow we will have our first real blast of northern air. I’m not sure I completely understand all the dynamics of this event, but here goes. That low sitting off the British Columbia coast will continue to sit there allowing the highs to build over the Great Basin in the 1030 ranges and the western Pacific.
The national weather service discussion this morning said, “NW winds will increase to 20-25Kt as an inverted trough develops over the Gulf of California between a high pressure ridge to the west of Baja and a strengthening ridge over the great basin states.” I did not have a clue as to what an inverted trough was so I went to the National Weather Service weather glossary. They apparently had never heard of one either.
Anyway it looks like a low trough in the Sea will be being sandwiched between a couple of big honk’n highs giving us a gradient enough to support almost gale force winds this Sunday and Monday.
Meantime enjoy today’s mild November temperatures along with light to moderate winds. The Pineapple Express will inhibit solar production somewhat but otherwise a very pleasant day. Good day to check the ground tackle and find a place to hide from the two days of chilly northerlies coming up.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see the Pineapple Express is still with us and had taken aim on the center of the Baja peninsula. The veil is a bit lighter than yesterday and we should be seeing more whispys than fluffys today. The extremes are about Santa Rosalia to La Paz.
There are also some scattered fluffys off the Mexican Riviera coast that will be drifting ashore today, mostly from about Cabo Corrienties to Mazatlan. The Tehuantepec has laid down but still lumpy. Monday should be a good day to start a crossing.
Today should be about like yesterday with some whispys passing over and temps in the mid 80s in most locations.
Now tomorrow we will have our first real blast of northern air. I’m not sure I completely understand all the dynamics of this event, but here goes. That low sitting off the British Columbia coast will continue to sit there allowing the highs to build over the Great Basin in the 1030 ranges and the western Pacific.
The national weather service discussion this morning said, “NW winds will increase to 20-25Kt as an inverted trough develops over the Gulf of California between a high pressure ridge to the west of Baja and a strengthening ridge over the great basin states.” I did not have a clue as to what an inverted trough was so I went to the National Weather Service weather glossary. They apparently had never heard of one either.
Anyway it looks like a low trough in the Sea will be being sandwiched between a couple of big honk’n highs giving us a gradient enough to support almost gale force winds this Sunday and Monday.
Meantime enjoy today’s mild November temperatures along with light to moderate winds. The Pineapple Express will inhibit solar production somewhat but otherwise a very pleasant day. Good day to check the ground tackle and find a place to hide from the two days of chilly northerlies coming up.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that the building high in the Pacific is pushing the Pineapple Express that has been over California for the past two days a bit south. Whispys have been passing over the Sea all night and gave us a spectacular sunrise this morning here in Concepcion Bay.
I don’t expect to see heavy clouds today. I’m thinking mostly whispys passing over mostly the northern and central Sea. Well perhaps as far south as La Paz, but right now it looks like this main plume will pass to the north of us over Arizona and New Mexico.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning. There is some moderate convection moving up from the ITCZ that is sending a few scattered bands of fluffys toward the Mexican Riviera this morning mainly in the southern portion around Zihuatanejo and Acapulco.
Not a lot of convection along the ITCZ this morning but the Tehuantepeck is still brewing there with storm force winds(that’s up to 70mph along with 25 ft seas) today that will diminish to gale force tomorrow then Saturday most likely around 20 knots. The next window looks like early next week.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where that trough of low pressure is tracking eastward and will be in the Great Basin later today and tomorrow. Oregon and Washington will start to day out today.
California will be getting wet today starting in Northern California and spreading south throughout the day bring a slight chance of showers to southern California tonight and tomorrow morning.
The low will move though the southwest today and tomorrow with a few showers possible today and tomorrow.
Sunday high pressure will start to build over the entire western conus warming things up a bit.
Meantime it looks like just a lot of cloudiness to the north of us.
Back down here in Baja. Just a tad gusterly in the far northern Sea but Very moderate southerly’s in the rest of the Sea today. Most likely the Pineapple Express will provide a veil of passing whispys during the day. Temps will continue to be very pleasant, mostly in the mid 80 today for the Sea and low 90s along the Riviera.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning the most dominate feature is a full blown Pineapple Express coming up from the western tropics aimed directly at the California coast. Another plume also supported by a 50-70 mph jet is moving off the Hawaiian Islands toward northern California and Oregon. So from about Ensenada to the Columbia River there is a long wide tropical tap of moisture providing clouds for the west coast.
I thought yesterday that it might dip to the south a bit and cover a portion of the northern Sea, however it did not and I’d have to guess that it is not going to do that today.
So looking down at the Sea it is pretty much cloud free this morning.
Looking south to the Riviera: There is a broken band of whispys moving up from the ITCZ about 115 that will show up from time to time today in the Mazatlan Puerto Vallarta area.
Not a lot of activity along the ITCZ until you get out toward Hawaii.
There is a Tehuantepec brewing in the isthmus this morning that will drop below gale force winds tonight but still be in the 25-30 ranges until at least Friday.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where as I mentioned a wet plume of tropical moisture blankets the west coast.
Tomorrow the first of several lows systems will enter the Great Northwest and will start to bring wet conditions to the west as far south as the upper Sacramento valley and into the Great Basin tomorrow and another one on Saturday.
For the southwest it will remain warm and dry today and then tomorrow as the lows move by to the north it will be breezy. Friday and Saturday it will cool off a little with a slight chance of showers over the weekend.
Next week once these Pacific storms blow though the highs are forecast to build again over the Great Basin and that could mean that our November light winds honeymoon will be over.

Meantime back down here in Baja we should be seeing abundant sunshine and warm temps today in the mid 80s along with moderate northerlies again today.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks to pretty much cloud free. Late yesterday a light band of whispys passed over the northern Sea from the Pacific. It looks like the same thing could happen today. There is an eastern flow in the Pacific today that is bringing a mixed band of fluffys and whispys toward the California coast that will most likely pass over the northern far Sea later today.
To the south there is a couple of lows imbedded in the ITCZ between about 110 and 130 that are producing a lot of clouds that are drifting toward the Riviera this morning. Currently the plume is around the Cabo Corrienties area but the cape and Mazatlan south could see some whispys pass over later today.
So just some whispys to the north and south and the rest of the Sea looks like it should be a great solar day.
Over in the Caribbean that late season hurricane Ida has passed 60 miles to the east of Cancun with only 15 knot winds reported there, and is now headed for Louisiana and Florida panhandle. It has intensified and is now a category 2 hurricane and is forecast to make landfall as a category one tomorrow then head up into Georgia as a tropical storm. A little good news: Hurricane hunter aircraft noted that the eyewall was open to the east, a sign that Ida’s inner core may be in trouble and the storm could be downgraded before making landfall.
Back to our hood where the tropical season is over and there is nothing else going on down here so looking north now to the west coast of America where there is a front moving into the Great Northwest today. Today and tomorrow most of the rest of the western conus will remain pretty much clear under building high pressure, and then the main attraction for the weak will be a big honk’n cold front that will arrive on Wednesday.
Southern California northward will be affected. Snow in the mountains and lots of rain the low lands.
For the southwest today: Phoenix could set a record high today with 90 being forecast. Tucson and Yuma in the high 80s. Dry weather will continue until that storm arrives later in the week bringing a chance of showers, some wind and cooler temperatures to the southwest.
Back down here in Baja today. We won’t be seeing much wind no matter where you are. The strongest will be along the Sonoran coast and it will be in the 15K ranges. Sunrise temps continue to drop a degree or two every day and the daytime highs will be in the high 70s to the low to mid 80s in Baja and the Riviera low 90s. So lots of sun, very light winds, and great November temperatures.
Still not sweatshirt weather.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Before looking down into the Sea this morning I’m looking at an image of the western united states all the way west out to about 160. There is a long broad scattered band of clouds that reaches all the way across the Pacific to the west coast providing cloudy conditions from the Canadian border to the Mexican border and it looks like a band will soon sweep over the far northern end of the Sea of Cortez later this morning.
Switching satellites now and looking just at the Sea of Cortez, it looks like most of the clouds have passed to the east and even though I can see a few isolated fluffys here and there is looks like we will be have abundant sunshine for all of the Sea except those whispys in the far north.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning I can see no thunderbumper activity that has taken place within the past 24 hours.
Further south along the ITCZ there are a couple of imbedded lows there one about 90 and the other out about 120W. There is an area of convection out about 140 that is sending a light plume of whispys toward the Baja peninsula that is best viewed with the water vapor imagery. The plume currently does not extend all the way to Baja but I would not be surprised if the cape has some whispys later today from it.
Just a quick look over into the Caribbean to check our Hurricane Ida. It looks like she is currently directly over Cancun still as a category one and headed for landfall along the gulf coast of Louisiana. Lot of speculation as to what Ida is going to do. Meantime she’s just dropping lots of rain. The rains have ended over Nicaragua and Honduras, and Ida dumped up to eleven inches of rain along the coast in Nicaragua, causing flooding that damaged thousands of homes, but caused no deaths or injuries as of yet.
I am revising my pessimistic forecast for the Tehuantepec to reflect this morning’s ASCAT pass which showed north winds in the 20-25 knot ranges lingering in the gulf of Tehuantepec. Winds are expected to diminish below 20 knots this afternoon, however this will be short lived as a cold front is forecast to move through tomorrow night kicking things back up again. I would not look at this as a window as Hurricane Ida is still influencing the winds in the isthmus.
That pretty much takes care of our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where a cold front moving through Oregon and Northern California has accounted for frost warnings to be issues for northern California’s west coast and the upper Sacramento valley this morning.
Other than that high pressure is dominate over the western conus.
For the southwest low pressure over Sonora will take the thicker clouds with it as it moves to the east tonight leaving mostly clear skies and warm weather into mid week.
On this side of the border in the Sea of Cortez we should be seeing mostly sunshine today. Sunrise temps were down across the board as the warm front passed to the east yesterday however daytime highs will be in the mid to high 80s today. Light to moderate winds will continue today in the Sea with a southern flavor.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning the first thing I was looking for was why I had a few sprinkles on my palapa at 3:30 this morning. The answer was: as that upper low moved across northern Baja yesterday and last night there was not a lot moisture in this plume. So where did the moisture come from. The water vapor imagery showed me that it came from a light plume of moisture emanating from the ITCZ out about 140. Just enough saturate the passing clouds and for Concepcion Bay to have a sprinkle or two. Mystery solved.
Now at 6am this morning satellite imagery is showing that the most of the passing clouds have moved off to the east and were on Sonoran coast or inland; however there are some lingering clouds with dark bottoms. Looking out my window just before I went on the air I could see a band of dark bottom fluffys moving off the east.
The far northern end of this band was still over the Tucson area and there is still considerable cloudiness in that area.
So it looks like at least by mid morning all the clouds will be gone and it looks like the Sea will be seeing abundant sunshine the rest of the day today.
Looking south to the Riviera this morning: No thunderbumper activity at all until you get to Guatemala.
Hurricane Ida over off the east coast of Nicaragua and northeast Honduras and is now a tropical storm and has dumped copious amounts of rain along the coast.
As it moves northeast in the Caribbean it will influence the winds in the Tehuantepec or lack of winds in the Tehuantepec for the next few days.
The forecast is for the Tehuantepeck to continue today with gale force winds and we have that heavily used meteorology term in the forecast … LINGERING MODEL UNCERTAINTY. So best advice is to stay out of the area until conditions improve there. So even though the forecast is for the gale to lie down later today, I have tweaked the winds up in the Tehuantepec for tomorrow to reflect gale force winds.
Ok taking a last look around the Eastern Pacific Basin: Not much going on along the ITCZ. That light plume of moisture that brought a sprinkle to Concepcion Bay could turn into a Pineapple Express in the next 24 hours. We’ll see.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where rain and snow are falling in the Great Northwest this morning. It looks like most of the weather is to the north of Nevada today. The Great Basin will have some passing clouds and the southwest will see those clouds overhead right now move off to the east this afternoon. Temps in the southwest should be in the high 80s today.
On this side of the border in the Sea of Cortez we can expect to see the skies clear this morning for a sunshiny day and the temps will be about the same as yesterday in the low to mid 80s. Winds will continue to be light.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see clouds from the border to the cape this morning. That weak upper low that I mentioned earlier will bring showers to San Diego this morning but as the front moves to the east it is not packing much moisture however it looks like some will have dark bottoms as they pass over the sea. The forecast is for this system to be a slow moving however looking at the animated satellite it looks like this plume of clouds will pass over the peninsula by late this afternoon.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera I can’t see any thunderbumper activity along the Riviera until you get to down around the Tehuantepec where there is still a Tehuantepecker brewing there. It should lie down a bit today and more tomorrow.
Very light convection along the ITCZ this morning and still no sign of the Pineapple Express.
Further south there is still a low that has moved a bit to the east in the past 24 hours and is now about 230 miles south of the Mexico/Guatemala border. The forecast is for not much a chance for further development.
Now looking over to the Caribbean I can see hurricane Ida. This storm has intensified at one of the fastest rates on record. It plowed ashore this morning in central Nicaragua as a category 1 hurricane with 75mph winds. The winds, of course, are certainly a problem however rainfall totals are forecast to be around 28 inches before it passes. Life threatening flooding and mud slides are now a major concern.
Ok moving back over into the Eastern Pacific Basin where all the way out to Hawaii all I can see are a few whispys.
So looking north now to the west coast of America and starting at the very top of this image I can see that Pacific storm moving through the Great Northwest this morning. It looks like it will dip down a bit into the Great Basin but mostly stay to the north as it moves into the Rockies.
Rain is forecast to extend south to the upper Sacramento valley today with snow forecast for the Cascades, the Sisques, and the Sierras.
Along the coast from San Francisco north huge 20 ft swells are forecast throughout the weekend along with 20-30 ft breakers along the Oregon coast.
For the southwest with the storm track well to the north they will not be affected by the Pacific storm except for some cloudiness.
The low moving out of southern California into northern Baja will be to the south of the border so they are right between two systems with not much affect from either except for a slight cooling trend through the weekend.
Back down here in Baja I noted that the northern and central Sea had from a 3-8 degree increase in their sunrise temps this morning. So it does not look like these passing clouds will cool us off any today. Daytime highs should be in the mid to high 80s for most locations in the Sea today.
So some drifting clouds passing over from the northwest, periods of sun expanding in the afternoon and again today very light winds. Sounds like a Chamber of Commerce day for Baja.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see the residual of that plume of clouds that passed over Baja yesterday hanging around the cape this morning. They should see some whispys from La Paz south to the cape this morning.
The rest of the Sea is pretty much cloud free, however one impulse splitting off of the British Columbia storm is running down the California coast and it looks like it will bring some clouds to Arizona and perhaps northern and central Baja. We’ll see.
Looking south to the Riviera: I can’t see any thunderbumper activity along the Riviera for the past 24 hours.
The Tehuantepec isthmus still has a Tehuantepecker brewing there with 35-45 knot winds that will last for the next several days.
So looking further south we still have that area of low pressure about 250 miles south of the Mexico/Guatemala border. Heavy thunderbumper activity there, however the good folks at the National Hurricane Center are saying there is only a slight chance of any development of this system.
Off to the east in the Caribbean, just to the east of Nicaragua is Hurricane Ida that has developed quickly in the past 24 hours. She is moving northwestward toward the Yucatan peninsula. This storm will not affect our weather here in the Sea however as I mentioned yesterday they have a history producing life-threatening flash floods and mud slides. Rainfall in eastern Nicaragua and eastern Honduras are forecast to have up to 25 inches of rain from this storm.
Ok, back to the Eastern Pacific Basin and looking at the ITCZ this morning. That hot spot out about 140 does not have the jet passing over it this morning so there is no northward plume emanating from it this morning like yesterday. And no evidence of a Pineapple Express this morning. The rest of the basin is fairly clear this morning.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where they are about to have a change in their weather as that big honk’n low moves into the Great Northwest. This will be bringing snow to the cascades, Sisques and the Sierras starting tomorrow and into the weekend.
A northwest swell of 20-24 ft will hit the northern Oregon coast Friday through Saturday and build to 20 ft Friday night at about 17 seconds. Breaker heights are up to 30 ft are possible.
The storm will then move through the Great Basin this weekend.
The southwest today will continue to see unseasonable warm temps near record highs today and not be much affected by the storm to the north when it moves through.
On this side of the border in the Sea of Cortez today the northern Sea will see some winds in the 15 knot ranges. The central Sea will be pretty much flat. The southern Sea also very light and variable. The Riviera will see some moderate off shore breezes.
Daytime temps will be a tad warmer today and the overnight low will hover in the mid 60s.
So lots of sun, not much wind. I think the only wind will be land breezes. Good day to move around if you feel like motoring. And it looks like these conditions will be with us into the weekend.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

THE WEBSITE STILL HAS SOME ISSUES. PLEASE BE PATIENT. I WORK REAL SLOW

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning, I see clouds for the first time in about a week. Whispys spread out from Ensenada to Mag Bay on the outside then passing over the peninsula into the Sea. Not a lot of moisture in this plume but it was enough to put a veil over the rising of the moon last night. This looks very much like a Pineapple Express however it is emanating from a low sitting on the ITCZ out about 140. This plume of clouds is being guided by a northeast flow through the Eastern Pacific Basin and a 70-95 mph jet stream aimed directly at the Baja peninsula. Still lots of convection there so the crystal ball is showing this to continue all day. So it looks like varying patterns of fluffys will be passing over the peninsula from the far northern Sea to perhaps La Paz in the south.
Leaving the Sea and looking south to the Riviera: I can see just some light thunderbumper activity along the southern Riviera, mostly off shore.
Looking further south to the ITCZ, I can see just light convection along 9 north this morning.
There is also a Tehuantepec brewing in the isthmus with gale force winds for the next few days.
I know I’ve closed the tropical kitchen for the year but there are a couple of items on the back burner this morning.
The first: In the Eastern Pacific Basin: a broad area of low pressure has formed a couple hundred miles south of Guatemala and the models are showing a very weak chance of this becoming a tropical cyclone in the next couple of days.
The second in the Caribbean pretty much due east of the low I just mentioned: it is also an area of low pressure that has a HIGH possibility of become a tropical cyclone in the next couple of days that could affect Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Honduras with heavy rains.
Neither of these systems will affect us; however I remember a couple of years ago a November storm caused an entire village to be buried under a mud slide in that area.
OK moving on to more pleasant things and looking north to the west coast of America where they will enjoy at least one more day of clear skies and high pressure before that Pacific storm now sitting off the Washington coast pushes that high pressure dome off to the east.
In the meantime unusually warm weather will continue the rest of the week in the southwest, however temps will drop slowly as the high weakens and the low moves in from the west. This low system will be bringing clouds as well as a slight chance of showers to the east of Tucson.
On this side of the border, in the Sea of Cortez, we will be seeing patches of whispys pass over the peninsula today. They gave Concepcion Bay a very colorful sunrise this morning. Sort of a preview of winter sunrises to come. This passing whispys should not affect our temps today they will continue to be in the mid 80s and the Riviera in the mid 90s.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks pretty much like yesterday. No clouds in the Sea this morning. I can see where there were a few whispys that passed over the southern peninsula last night but that was about it.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera: I can see where there has been pretty much continuous light thunderbumper activity between Zihuatanejo and Acapulco for the past 24 hours. Neither Zihuatanejo or Acapulco reported rain though.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec: There is still a Tehuantepecker brewing there with near gale force winds that will continue for the next several days.
Looking now to the ITCZ: Out about 140 there is a weak low and associated showers in that area. The northeast flow is sending a plume of clouds pretty much toward the central Baja peninsula. The leading edge of this plume is still several hundred miles off the Baja coast and when I rub the crystal ball and wave the chicken feathers over the image it looks like this plume will reach Baja later today and could possibly partially obscure the raising of the full moon tonight. We’ll see?
The rest of the Eastern Pacific Basin is fairly clear with just some light whispys here and there.
So looking north now to the west coast of America where I can see the next weather system to affect the west is starting to move out of the Gulf of Alaska. As I mentioned earlier this should arrive Thursday bringing rain to central California northward for the later part of the week.
In the meantime, high pressure will continue to bring warm and sunny conditions to the West Coast. They can expect highs to remain in the 50s over the Pacific Northwest, while most of California will see another warm day in the 70s and 80s.
The southwest will continue to enjoy a November heat wave as strong high pressure aloft is bringing unseasonable warm conditions to southwest Arizona with record or near record highs being forecast. Things should start to cool off as the high weakens this weekend under pressure from the Alaska storm that will move into the Great Basin. So it looks like the southwest will have a few more days of toasty weather.
On this side of the border in the Sea of Cortez we will be seeing light to moderate winds today. Sunrise Temps continue to warm just a little. The Sea should be in the mid 80s and the Riviera mid 90s today. And it should be a grand show when the full moon raises about dark this evening. Someone asked, so I checked…You will have to wait until next month for a blue moon month. Two full moons in the same month.

Voice to Text……….
.Well, looking down into the Sea this morning there is not much to see. No clouds, no hurricanes, no tropical depressions forming, not even any thunderbumper activity along the Riviera this morning.
Looking southwest to the western tropics I can’t see any signs of a Pineapple Express that might blanket our full moon tonight. Even the ITCZ has just very light convection spread out along 10 north. About the only thing going on the Eastern Pacific Basin is a lonely tropical wave sort of parked on 90 west, 15 north.
So looking north to the west coast of America for some weather. Well, there is a weak wet front moving into Seattle this morning. It will move off to the east this evening and it looks like they will have at least a couple of days of sunshine.
High pressure and mostly clear skies blanket the rest of the western conus.
The hottest thing going weather wise to the north of us is the November heat wave in the southwest. Prognosticators are suggesting that new November high temperatures records may be set this week in the southwest. Tucson will be around 90 today. So it looks like it will be hot and dry for the week in the southwest. Clear skies and warm days.
South of the border in the Sea of Cortez I noted that at most locations the sunrise temps were up a degree or two and I would expect that to translate in a couple of degrees warmer during the day.
So for today, mild winds, warmer temps, lots of sun and no clouds to block the rising of the full moon tonight. I’m quoting Don this morning and and he said the weather today in the Sea of cortes was “Lovely lovely lovely” I’d agree and the next 3 days look pretty much the same.
A couple of reminders this morning: Today is Dia de La Muerto. Day of the Dead. Mexicans will be in the cemeteries and on the highways decorating the crosses with flowers and offerings. Banks, government offices and some businesses will be closed today. You might get a few trick or treaters tonight so hopefully you have not eaten all the candy left over from Halloween.
And folks in California set their clocks back one hour this past weekend so, Baja Norte is on Pacific Standard Time and hopefully you know that Baja Sur is now on Mountain Time. It’s usually this time of year that folks are going around asking “Does anyone know what time it is?”
And finally: Step out of your shell a bit tonight, climb on deck, dig deep in your primeval soul and howl at the moon. It’s amazing how catching this is. Some months I can get the entire beach howling. The worst thing that will happen is, you will probably smile. And remember Sunrise is Spanish for smile. Give it a try.

After the Sonrisa Weather it’s back to work.

The following is from my daily ham radio Report


Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning. The only clouds I can see is a thin plume of whispys passing over the cape from the west right now, otherwise the Sea is pretty much free of any clouds.
Looking south to the Riviera: there is some thunderbumper activity between Zihuatanejo and Acapulco on shore and off shore I can see a couple of thumpers working but not much in the way of any clouds to the north of Zihuatanejo.
Looking further north to the Tehuantepec winds to 35 are forecast for the next 3 days.
The ITCZ is fairly calm this morning with only light convection along 9 north. Out about 135 there is a hot spot that is sending a light plume of clouds to the northeast and they are the whispys passing over the cape this morning.
Of course there is nothing cooking in the tropical kitchen so looking north now to the west coast of America where if you were a pilot you could say you had VFR (Visual Flight Rules) for most of the western conus. Clear skies and high pressure blanket the region. The high pressure will continue to build until mid week and is bringing warmer temps to the southwest as much as 10 degrees above the seasonal norm. Southwest Arizona will be in the high 80s today and high 50s tonight.
On this side of the border we are seeing sunrise temps in the mid to high 60s this morning. The average overnight low for November is 67. The average highs for November are 82 and that is about what most of the locations will see today. Say mid 80s.
So lots of sun, not much wind on the Baja side and pleasant daytime temps for our hood today.

76s Y’all
