.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see where as that low moved through southern California yesterday and last night it brought some passing clouds to the northern Sea. There could have been some rain but this image is showing mostly upper level clouds passing over northern Baja and the northern end of the Sea.
There is a lot of cloudiness in the Pacific off the Baja west coast this morning. These clouds are coming from an area of convection on the ITCZ about 150 this morning. They are multi-level clouds and it looks like there is a heavy mix of fluffys in the plume. What it looks like is that first we will see some high whispys and following that the fluffys will start passing over. I’d imagine that many will have dark bottoms. We’ll see?
Looking now to the Mexican Riviera where is looks clear along the coast all the way south to Central America this morning however off shore and headed toward the coast is part of that band of clouds I just mentioned for Baja. The Mexican Riviera could see them later this morning.
Further south the Tehuantepec will still be enjoying light winds today and tomorrow. Tuesday the winds will pick up to around 25 knots.
Looking way out along the ITCZ this morning to about 150 I can see an area of building convection that’s introducing a lot of clouds into the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning. There is no jet stream in the area and these clouds are drifting with the west/east flow across the Pacific toward Baja this morning.
That’s it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where at the top of this image Portland and Seattle have rain and snow in their forecast today.
Further down the coast in northern California both along the coast and inland they had a hard freeze last night and cold temperatures are on tap for today and tonight.
Southern California with high pressure just off shore waiting to fill in in the wake of the departing storm should see fair skies and gradually warmer days starting tomorrow. San Diego will warm up from a 38 last night to around 57 today
Looking now over to the southwest where a winter storm warning is in affect for the Tucson area this morning. The storm will move through the area today bringing wide spread rain and snow. Snow levels will fall as low as valley floors in some locations with significant snowfall expected above 4000 feet. Tucson will dip to around 29 tonight as the storm moves east out of the area tonight, tomorrow should see a strong warming trend into the middle of the week when the next system is forecast to arrive in the southwest.
Back on this side of the border the northern and central Sea will be seeing 20 knot winds today and a bit less for the southern Sea as a result of the storm passing through Arizona today.
As the pressure over the Great Basin increases over the next couple of days it will provide enough of a gradient to keep the winds in the central Sea in the 20 knot ranges.
I’m a bit concerned about the 1000 mb low over central Mexico this morning. With the 1020 high off the Baja west coast that would create about a 20 mb gradient today which would produce ballpark 20 knot winds. Those winds are forecast for tomorrow along the East Cape and as far south as Cabo Corrienties along the Riviera. I guess the best I can do is give a Heads-Up to the possibility of 20 knot winds along the northern Riviera today. We’ll see.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that the tail end of that low that moved down the California coast is swinging over northern Baja this morning. There are several pockets of rain in this counter-clockwise swirl and one is over Puerto Penasco right now however the real time reporting station there was showing no rain.
The cloudiness extends south to about LA Bay and the Middrifts. It looks like as this system moves out of the Pacific and heads inland today northern Baja will be getting some rain, probably as far south as LA Bay.
From about Bahia San Franciscito south the Sea looks to be free of any clouds this morning.
There is an area of convection way out on the ITCZ about 150 that is sending a broad plume of what looks like mostly whispys toward southern California and northern Baja. Baja Sur could see some of these this morning before they dissipate completely.
Looking now south to the Mexican Riviera where there are no clouds along the coast all the way south to Central America.
The Tehuantepec remains calm again this morning so looking back to the north to the west coast of America where, as advertized, a big honk’n low has moved down the west coast bringing wind, rain and snow to Sea level in many locations last night and this morning. A bitter arctic cold front is following the low and dropping the snow levels and bringing record lows to southern California.
La La Land and San Diego have been issued flood and flash flood warnings for today. Not only heavy rain but snow to very low levels by tonight. Very cold tomorrow morning as the front moves through.
As the system moves through southern California into the southwest today it will not loose any of its intensity. It will bring windy conditions with areas of blowing dust today and then the rain and snow will start late tonight into tomorrow. Significant snowfall is expected in the Arizona mountains. It will be very cold on Sunday as the storm exits to the east late Sunday and into Monday.
There will be a short, but strong warming trend early next week prior to the arrival of the next system from the north.
Back down here across the border as the cold front pushes through the northern Sea tonight the winds behind the front will increase to perhaps 30 knots. These high winds will be restricted to the far northern end of the Sea. San Franciscito south should see moderate winds today. The winds will be picking up a bit in the Sea tomorrow and Monday as high pressure rebuilds over the Great Basin.
So most of the Sea today will see lots of sun and very moderate winds. If that low hangs around over the mainland the northern Riviera could see some 20 knot winds on Monday. We’ll have a better look tomorrow.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can high pressure off the Baja west coast has kept all the clouds to the north of the US/Mexico border for the past 24 hours.
Water Vapor imagery is showing all the moisture moving in from the Pacific to also be north of the border making all of Baja and the Sea to be rather dry.
No clouds or moisture in the area of the Mexican Riviera this morning either.
The Tehuantepec is still quiet this morning and if forecast to remain that way throughout the weekend.
Not a whole lot going on along the ITCZ this morning. Just a few areas of minor convection, not really producing any clouds at all.
So with nothing going on in our hood I’m looking north now to the west coast of America where a low pressure system and an associated cold front are moving down the West Coast and will bring record breaking low temperatures to California tonight and Saturday morning.
As the system moves southward, its picking up ample moisture from the Pacific Ocean and is producing widespread rain. Snow showers are likely to 1,000 feet across most of California, with sleet and frozen rain possible to sea level. Snow accumulation is not likely at sea level, due to warm ground temperatures. Winter weather advisories have been issued across the many hills of California, as snow may accumulate to as low as 400 feet.
Overnight low temperatures will range from the mid-20s to the lower 30s across the low levels of the West Coast, while the Cascades and Sierras will see overnight lows between -10 and zero degrees. Daytime highs will range in the 30s and 40s. This storm has the potential to bring some of the lowest snow levels seen in recent times.
For southern California behind the cold front a very cold and unstable air mass will continue to bring a threat of showers and a slight chance of thunderbumpers into Saturday. Some of these post-frontal storms could bring brief heavy downpours, hail, gusty winds and waterspouts.
The winds are forecast to gust to over 50 mph which could create brief periods of whiteout conditions along mountain highways including the Grapevine.
Looking now over to the southwest it will remain dry but cloudy today, mostly in the northern portions of Arizona. Tomorrow during the day the storm will bring windy conditions with blowing dust and then on Saturday night and Sunday rain and snow.
As the low moves across the area expect significant valley rain and mountain snow tomorrow night into Sunday morning. Snow levels will fall quickly and may be near valley floors in some locations. The overnight low in Tucson tomorrow night will be around 28 degrees.
The storm should pass off into the plains states on Monday and the southwest should recover quickly with high pressure filling in from the Pacific bringing warming temperatures with it.
Back down here across the border the entire sea can expect to see very moderate northerlies today. Tomorrow the northern Sea will see some 30 knot winds and then Sunday the central and southern Sea will see gusterly conditions however they will be mostly in the 20 knot ranges.
No chance of any rain coming our way from this west coast storm however these unusual cool February temperatures will continue at least until early next week. Here in the cove the average overnight low for February is 59 degrees this month it is averaging 53 degrees.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can’t see any clouds and it does not look like there have been any clouds passing over the peninsula for the past 24 hours.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera I can see that there are no clouds along the mainland coast this morning and there is nothing off shore that could drift toward the coast.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where they are currently having light (less than 10 knots) winds and the prospects of an uneventful crossing is possible for the next several days.
Looking not at the ITCZ where there is very little in the way of any convection along the zone again this morning.
The Eastern Pacific Basin is under very high pressure and it looks like mostly clear skies all the way over to Hawaii this morning.
That’s it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where that 1009 low that just migrated south from British Columbia this morning will be a major weather-maker for the next couple of days.
This low and the accompanying cold front will be bringing record breaking low temperatures and snow to Sea level down the west coast through this weekend.
Here is what is going to happen as this storm moves down the coast.
Starting with the Great Northwest: Today a winter storm warning is in effect for Portland and the Vancouver metro areas. Snow on the sidewalks.
Northern California: Today: Rain will change to snow at elevations above 1000 feet in the Bay Area.
Upper Sacramento Valley: A winter weather advisory above 500 ft today through tomorrow morning. Snow in downtown Sacramento tomorrow night. Heavy snow on all the mountain roads and heavy snow accumulations in the Sierras.
Southern California: The storm will arrive tomorrow and spread rain and mountain snow into Saturday. After the cold front moves through on Saturday morning the snow level will drop to around 1500 feet in the San Diego Area. Up to a foot of snow can be expected in the higher mountains. High temperatures Saturday will be among the lowest on record.
Strong winds in the mountains and deserts will accompany the front starting Friday afternoon. Gusts to 50 mph are possible, decreasing late Saturday.
Behind the cold front a very cold and unstable air mass will continue to bring a threat of showers and a slight chance to thunderbumpers into Saturday. Some of these post frontal storms could bring brief heavy downpours, hail, gusty winds and waterspouts.
For the southwest: It will remain dry through tomorrow night. Starting Saturday the storm will move across the region bringing windy conditions and a slight chance of some showers. Saturday night and Sunday are the best chance of some rain and snow to near valley floors east of Tucson. Snow levels will be around 3000 ft in the Tucson Area.
The storm should exit the region late Sunday and Monday with high pressure and warming temperatures filling in.
At the observatory at San Pedro Martir which is at 9,154 feet just east of Ensenada it is overcast, blowing 30 knots and is 26 degrees this morning and they are expecting heavy snow tomorrow.
The rest of Baja will enjoy sunny skies today. The only fly in the ointment is that big honk’n high off the Baja coast and a 1007 low over mainland Mexico. It is going to be responsible for the strong winds in La Paz, the East Cape, the southern crossing and from Mazatlan to Cabo Corrienties today. It looks like those winds will be in the 18-22 knot ranges. The west cape will also see some of these strong winds. The rest of the Sea will be in the moderate ranges this afternoon. Temperatures will again be in the high 60 to low 70s today for most locations around the Sea.
And for you folks that want a little push going north. Saturday looks like moderate southerlies.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that we had some high whispys pass over the Sea yesterday mostly from about Puerto Escondido south to the cape. These clouds are moving up from a flair along the ITCZ about 120.
Off the west coast of the Baja peninsula this morning there is an increasing amount of clouds sort of bunching up out there. Normally the coastal mountains block these from crossing over into the Sea. The web cam at Cabo Falso is showing heavy clouds with dark bottoms off to the west. These are mid level clouds and I would not be surprised if these clouds crept over the top and moved out into the Sea today. We’ll see?
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera it looks like they are currently cloud free however there are those bands of whispys moving up from the ITCZ that are mostly dissipated by the time they make landfall however it looks like a few will pass over today from about Manzanillo north to Puerto Vallarta.
The Tehuantepec is pretty quiet this morning and looking over to the ITCZ I can see that one area, it’s actually a rather stationary low about 120 that is producing a very moderate amount of convection that is now drifting toward the Mexican Riviera.
That’s it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where at the top of this image a winter storm watch is in effect for the Pacific Northwest for today and tomorrow. Snow on the streets of Portland and Seattle until the end of the week. There is a cold upper level low that is building over western Washington today and will continue trough tomorrow morning. Snow levels will start around 500 ft and drop to 300 ft tomorrow.
For the rest of the west coast there is a low that is working it’s way,, off shore, down the coast providing some light showers and clouds along the coast as it moving south about 20-30 mph. This is forecast to swing inland around Turtle Bay and then hook back around and go northeast. The forecasters say that most of the moisture will be gone by the time it reaches Baja and are not forecasting much rain if any.
The other weather-maker is a big honk’n cold Alaskan low that will work its way down the coast and is forecast to bring rain and mountain snow to southern California this weekend.
This system is also forecast to draw very cold Canadian air down through the cascades and the Sierras and snow is forecast to arrive in the Northern Sierras on Thursday.
So California will remain mostly cloudy and cold this week with a hint of some warming next week.
Looking now over to the southwest where it will warm slightly today before a weak storm system pushes through the area late Wednesday into Thursday. As I mentioned the models are not showing much precipitation from this system, perhaps a slight chance of some snow in the White Mountains. They will have to wait until this weekend when a stronger system impacts the region. First with wind on Saturday and then a chance of some rain and much cooler temperatures on Sunday.
Back across the border here in Baja we should be having a very pleasant day wind-wise with very moderate northerlies today. It will however be chilly if you are not in the sun. I don’t think the central or southern Sea will reach 70s degrees today. Cabo, the hot spot, might make it to around 73 though this afternoon. The Riviera just about like yesterday and the day before and the day before.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea first in the 24 hour mode I can see that a plume of remnant clouds from that cold front that passed through the southwest yesterday is still moving in from the Pacific. Scattered bands of mostly whispys are passing over the Sea as far south as Santa Rosalia this morning. There is still a lot of clouds out in this Pacific plume and I’d expect to see the clouds continue to pass over the northern Sea all day.
Yuma Radar is not showing any rain associated with these scattered plumes. The web cams in the northern Sea are showing partly cloudy skies this morning over the Gonzaga and LA Bay area. .
From Santa Rosalia south the Sea looks to be cloud free this morning.
Looking now south to the Mexican Riviera where I can’t see any clouds along the west coast of Mexico at all.
No advisories for the Tehuantepec so looking south to the ITCZ I can see just a few flairs of convection along the zone this morning. None of which is producing much in the way of any serious clouds.
The rest of the Eastern Pacific Basin is under high pressure and mostly whispys fill the basin this morning.
Looking north now to the west coast of America where at the top of this image is the only place on the coast to have any weather. Both Portland and Seattle are forecast to have snow down to 1000 feet by tomorrow morning and to Sea level by Thursday. Both cities are forecast to have snow flurries on the city streets all week.
The rest of the west coast is overcast this morning and under a cold air mass that will keep most of the western conus from much warming this week.
There is an upper low off the Oregon coast this morning that is forecast to move down the coast and off the coast during the week and bring some rain to California starting perhaps on Wednesday. The models are not quite in agreement as to the timing of this event so I’ll say later in the week.
The models are indicating that the system will dive down the west coast as far south as Turtle Bay before hooking a left and moving inland across southern California, Baja and Arizona on Wednesday before exiting to the east on Thursday.
The Baja Insider is forecasting rain and colder temperatures to Baja Sur from this storm. I’ll go along with the colder temperatures however the National Weather Service office in Phoenix is saying not a lot of moisture will be in this system and if there is any rain or snow it will occur mainly in the White Mountains of Arizona Wednesday and Thursday. We’ll see?
Taking a look at the southwest this morning where they should see some slight warming until that system moves in from California about mid week. I can see most of Arizona has scattered clouds that are those remnant clouds moving in from the Pacific.
So with the exception of those folks shoveling snow on the streets of Seattle and Portland the rest of the west coast is dry, cool and overcast this morning.
Looking now across the border to Baja and the Sea of Cortez.
The Winds in the Sea will be moderate today. Afternoon breezes ballpark around 15 knots. Tomorrow a bit less and Wednesday even less. So the next three days look like Chamber of Commerce days for wintering in Baja.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see a wide moisture plume that is a remnant of the Pacific storm that just passed through southern California passing over the northern Sea of Cortez to about Santa Rosalia. The Yuma radar is showing there is some rain embedded in this plume however it is mostly in the Mexicali area and NE of Yuma.
So what looks like is left of this plume is mostly whispys that should last until late this afternoon.
The rest of the Sea, south of Santa Rosalia, looks to be cloud free this morning.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning I can see there are no clouds along the west coast of Mexico this morning.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where there are no advisories posted and the winds are forecast to be under 20 knots through late Sunday.
That’s about it for Baja and the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning so looking north now to the west coast of America where that Pacific storm that has been over the west is weakening and moving off to the east today.
It is currently centered at the very southern tip of Nevada and I can see some residual showers in the southwestern portion of this swirling low.
As it spins through Arizona today and into New Mexico later today there will be isolated shower activity in its path over central and southern Arizona.
Arizona will have a couple of days to dry out before the next Alaskan storm moves across the area later in the week.
Looking back over to California for a moment. There are a couple items of interest in northern California. First there is an very cold upper low there that was responsible for rain in the bay area in the past 24 hours and Mt Hamilton in San Francisco had snow down to 1500 feet, that brought to a total of 15 inches of snow on Mt. Hamilton since Thursday.
That pretty much covers the weather to the north of us. There will be a couple of days early in the week of dry but cool weather before the next Gulf of Alaska storm arrives in California and the southwest about the middle of next week.
Meantime back down here in Baja It will be a bit breezy today as that front passed through to the north. The next couple of days look like the past couple with very moderate winds and warm temperatures.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that several bands of wet clouds passed through northern Baja during the past 24 hours. It looks like inside of Turtle Bay at Guerrero Negro is going to be the southern extreme of this storm and I can see they have had some rain.
In the Sea of Cortez it does not look like many of the clouds reached the coast south of San Filepe. It does however look like from about Ensenada south to around San Vicente along the west coast they got a good dose or rain last night.
It looks like all these clouds will pass to the northeast later this morning and with the exception of a few remnant clouds the Sea should be pretty much free of any clouds today.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera where there are no clouds to be seen all along the Riviera this morning.
No advisories for the Tehuantepec this morning. The winds are forecast to be less than 20 tonight and less than 15 Sun and Mon.
Taking a quick look at the ITCZ this morning I can see that there is very little in the way of any convection along the zone this morning.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north to the west coast of America were off the California coast this image is showing a huge counter-clockwise anticyclone that is rotating from Ensenada to Seattle this morning. This whole system will be moving east today but not before leaving lots or rain on the ground and snow down to 3000 feet in southern California today. The Sierras could get a couple more feet of snow today and this evening. It’s forecast to snow all week at Lake Tahoe.
Most of the weather will be off to the east by Monday and the west will have a couple of days of dry weather before the next system arrives about mid week.
Looking now over to the southwest where this storm will be arriving tonight and will start to impact southwest Arizona tomorrow morning. This weekend they should have gusterly conditions accompany the rain in the deserts and snow that will be in the higher elevations. Monday the southwest should dry out and be ready for the next system due in mid week.
Meantime back across the border today we should be having another great spring-like day. The northern Sea will see strong southerlies today and the central see will see either light easterly or southerly winds this afternoon. The southern Sea’s winds will have a western flavor today.
Temperatures should be in the mid to high 70s today. The cape area low 80s this afternoon.

Sea of Cortez Weather 02/18/11
Friday, February 18, 2011
Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that several bands of mostly whispys have passed over the Baja peninsula over the past 24 hours.
There is a big honk’n storm that is just off the southern California coast that will be sending what looks like a fairly solid plume of multi-level clouds over Northern Baja. Right now it looks like perhaps Santa Rosalia will be the southern extreme of these clouds.
There is a lot of moisture in these clouds and I’d expect that the far northern portion of the state gets some rain. The models are showing the system moving northeast as soon as it makes landfall later today in southern California. The tail end of this front would just brush Baja before moving over into northern Arizona tomorrow.
That being said. based in what I’m looking at in this image, I’d expect to see cloudiness from this system to blanket the northern Sea starting later today through tomorrow. We’ll see? The web cam at LA Bay is showing considerable cloudiness this morning.
Today from Santa Rosalia south the Sea looks like it should see mostly sunshine today.
Looking now over to the Mexican Riviera this morning. This image is showing a very very light grey area moving toward Cabo Corrienties this morning. I can’t tell if they are fog or high cirrus. I noted that none of the cruisers in the area reported any fog so I guess they are whispys. That's the only thing along the Riviera that looks like clouds this morning.
Looking now south to the Tehuantepec where a Tehuantepecker will start brewing this evening with winds just below gale force. This wind event is forecast to last through late Sunday.
Looking around the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning. There is a line of storms from Hawaii north to the Gulf of Alaska that is slowly moving to the east, toward the west coast. This is next week’s weather.
That’s about it for down here so looking north now to the west coast of America where most of the west coast will be getting wet today and tomorrow. Snow advisories and winter weather advisories for most mountain roads in California today.
Northern California’s storms will be tapering off somewhat today however snow will continue falling all through the Sierras through tomorrow with up to several feet of new snow accumulations.
In southern California that storm is just getting started. This storm will arrive this afternoon and be bringing heavy rain, mountain snow over the weekend and gale force winds in the coastal waters between San Mateo Point and the border this evening into tomorrow morning.
This vigorous cold front will be bringing a whole shopping bag of nastys with it including thunderstorms and lightning, hail, waterspouts, small tornados and damaging winds to 60 mph.
Today the snow levels will be around 4500 feet but will be dropping to around 3000 feet tomorrow behind the front.
The system should exit the area late tomorrow night to the east.
So looking now to the east and over into southwest Arizona this morning where it will be dry today in advance of that big honker that’s arriving in southern California today. That storm will bring gusterly winds and a chance of valley rain and mountain snow to the Tucson area. The storm should pass late Sunday and return to dry weather until the next system arrives toward the middle of next week.
Back across the border here in Baja we will be seeing some of the clouds from that Pacific storm drift over northern Baja and the northern Sea today and tomorrow. One of the models I look at is showing rain as far south as Santa Rosalia and the other has just a little rain around Ensenada and most of the rest of northern Baja remaining dry. I thought they would have had it nailed down by this morning but I guess it’s one of those “Lingering Model Uncertainty Things” that crop up when forecasting weather for Baja. I’m not going to try to outguess the guessers on this one.
So today and tomorrow as this storm passes to the north of us the Sea should be seeing moderate winds with a southern flavor for pretty much the whole Sea. Well, southern or perhaps an eastern flavor for today and tomorrow.
Today’s highs in Baja will be in the mid 70s to the low 80s.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that the Sea for the past 24 hours has been pretty much clear of any clouds.
I had expected the moisture plume that is spread out between San Diego and Hawaii to migrate a bit south yesterday and the northern Sea would see some cloudiness. It did not happen.
There are a few low level clouds that are approaching the west coast of the Baja peninsula this morning but appear to be blocked from passing into the Sea by the coastal mountains.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning there are no clouds along the coast all the way south to Panama. Interesting, from Panama south into Venezuela, Columbia and Ecuador it looks like Thunderbumper City. One big mass of thunderbumper activity on the northern end of South America.
Back at the Tehuantepec it looks like the current wind event is winding down. The Gale warnings are expiring and the winds in the Gulf should be less than 20 knots by this afternoon and less than 10 into the weekend.
Taking a quick look out into the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning. I can see some convection moving off the ITCZ and drifting toward Baja in the form of high whispys. We could see a few of them today.
I can see that moisture plume that is stretched out between Hawaii and San Diego this morning. It is feeding moisture into that cold front that has moved down the coast into southern California this morning.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where I found it interesting that the National Weather Service put out a special advisory for San Diego telling people it is going to rain there today.
Fact is, it is raining from Vancouver Island to Ensenada this morning. The entire western seaboard is seeing accumulations of rain in the low lands and snow in the mountains. The Sierras will be getting a couple of feet of new snow.
The Grape Vine will probably have chain requirements today.
The snowpack started off good this year and then for the past month and a half virtually no snow for the Cascades or the Sierras so all is wetness is welcome.
The storm window is open and it looks like this week and most likely a good part of next week the west coast will be seeing cold wet storms arrive from the north Pacific and down from Alaska.
This cold front will bring mostly light rain today for southern California but behind it a more powerful Pacific storm is due in this weekend.
Looking over to the southwest this morning where this cold front will move through the area later today and tonight producing just a slight chance of showers. A high wind advisory has been posted for the Colorado River Valley while this front passes, and in this image I can see that moisture plume from Hawaii streaming over southern California and into northern Arizona this morning.
After this system passes to the east dry weather is expected on Friday and then a major Pacific storm will move into the area this weekend producing rain and more snow to the higher elevations.
I don’t think this first impulse will get much of Baja wet but the one coming though this weekend will probably be bringing rain as far south as Turtle Bay and Guerrero Negro on the west coast and perhaps L.A. Bay on the east coast of the peninsula.
Well that’s the nasty stuff to the north of us. For those of us lucky enough to be south of the border today we should be seeing spring-like weather through the weekend.
The Mexican Riviera should be seeing light southerlies in the afternoons for at least the next 3 days.
The Sea of Cortez will be seeing very moderate northerlies into the weekend. I’m thinking we might even see some light southerlies. We’ll see?
It looks like the central and southern Baja peninsula will see temperatures in the 80s today. The northern Sea still in the low 70s.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks like the Sea is pretty much free of any fluffys. I can see a few whispys here and there but that’s all the clouds I can see.
Off the west coast of the Baja peninsula I can see that the coastal mountains are blocking the few clouds that are migrating across the Pacific from moving into the Sea.
I can see a long band of clouds moving into Ensenada and S. California that looks like it will be present there all week. The northern end of the Sea will most likely be overcast by tonight or tomorrow. Ensenada will most likely see rain this weekend.
Looking south to the Riviera and I can not see any clouds along the coast all the way south to Central America again this morning.
Looking now at the Tehuantepec where it looks like the current wind event could be coming to an end. All advisories are now down with some pulsing 20-30 knot winds today and tomorrow then less than 20 on Thursday. We’ll see?
Looking now at the ITCZ I can see several thunderbumpers working along the zone but not adding any cloudiness to the region.
High pressure is off the west coast of Baja and it is pretty much clear all the way out to Hawaii this morning. There looks like there is a big thunderbumper working over the big island this morning.
That’s it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where the entire west coast will be getting wet this week. Most of the rain will be from a cold low that moved out of the Gulf of Alaska and is now moving down the coast.
Snow to 500 ft along the Washington coast today and a couple of feet of new snow for the cascades.
In Northern California starting today. the sierras will be getting a couple of feet of new snow.
Southern California will have to wait until tomorrow to get there share of the rain and snow.
This storm is forecast to produce significant amounts of rain this week in California before moving east this weekend.
Looking now over to the southwest where the skies are currently clear. High pressure will continue to bring dry and warm weather over the region today. The high will weaken tomorrow as that Pacific storm moves into the western states. A weak cold front will move across the region late tomorrow afternoon and evening resulting in a slight chance of showers. A much better chance of some rain and mountain snow will arrive this weekend when a stronger system moves into the area.
Back down here across the border we will see some gusterly conditions in the northern and central Sea south to about Puerto Escondido this afternoon. Not really too bad though with the strongest in the Northern crossing to be in the 20 knot ranges.
While the rest of the week, to the north of us is getting rain and snow it looks to me that we might be seeing the first signs of spring starting to spring in Baja for the rest of this week. We’ll see?

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that most of the clouds that passed over the Sea yesterday and last night have moved off to the east this morning. I can still see a few stragglers around but for the most part it looks like a sunny day is in store for the Sea of Cortez today.
That flair along the ITCZ around 120 is still producing clouds and I’d imagine that from time to time today we will see a few passing whispys but I think that will be it. The web cam at Cabo Falso showed clear skies off to the west this morning.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning. There are no clouds visible on this image from the cape all the way into Central America so it looks like the cruisers along the Riviera will be seeing abundant sunshine as well today.
Looking now at the very active Tehuantepec where yesterday’s Storm warning has expired and a Gale warning is now in effect for today and tomorrow. They are still seeing 40-45 knot winds in the gulf. Wednesday could see the winds dip down below 20 knots.
Taking a quick look around the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning. With the exception of that one hot spot along the ITCZ this morning producing clouds the rest of the basin just has some high whispys between here and Hawaii this morning. High pressure in the 1024 ranges pretty much dominate the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning.
That’s about it for our hood so looking now north to the west coast of America where a strong Pacific storm is poised to bring significant rain to the California’s valleys and snow to the Sierras starting later today.
Meantime with the storm window wide open Oregon and Washington are getting rain and snow in the cascades today and it will continue all week with the snow levels dropping to around 1000 feet later in the week in the Portland area.
Southern California today will be overcast and a bit cooler. Tomorrow and tomorrow night a large trough of low pressure off the west coast will gradually move toward the southwest. This will bring more clouds and more cooling.
Then on Wednesday and Wednesday night the first of the Gulf of Alaska storms will move inland through central and southern California. This will bring periods of heavy rain and lower snow levels to around 4000 feet on Thursday morning.
Then Thursday through the weekend additional short waves with Gulf of Alaska origins will be moving inland. Snow levels could drop to around 2000 feet this weekend.
So it looks like the skiers and the reservoir watchers will be the only ones happy in California and the Great Northwest with rain forecast for most of the lower elevations during the week.
Back down here across the border we won’t be having any adverse weather advisories at all today, in fact just the opposite. Moderate winds are on tap for most of the Sea and the Riviera today. We should be seeing mostly sunshine and temperatures will rise just a bit to be in the mid to high 70s this afternoon.
Tomorrow should see a mild one day increase in the winds then on Wednesday its back to the very moderate afternoon northerlies. There are some early indications that the rest of the week will also be very pleasant. We’ll see?

.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks like the entire Sea is free of any fluffys. This image is showing some scattered whispys here and there though.
I can see a large area of cloudiness is still west of the Baja peninsula this morning. It looks like the coastal mountains have been blocking these clouds from passing over into the Sea for the past 24 hours but a heaver concentration of clouds has moved in behind those along the coast right now and it could push the whole mess over the top and we could be seeing some cloudiness. I just looked at an updated image of these clouds and they were starting to cross around the cape area.
Looking now at the satellite image and the Mexican Riviera and although it looks pretty much clear right now for the entire coast, from Mazatlan to Cabo Corrienties could see some cloudiness later this afternoon.
All this cloudiness is coming from the ITCZ which is around 10N this morning and there is a hot spot generating all these clouds around 120 and they are drifting north and then northeast toward Mexico and Baja. The jet in the area has been very erratic for the past week and I think we have had only one day that we could say the clouds were transported by the Pineapple Express. It’s not there this morning.
Looking south to the Tehuantepec where last night the gale warning expired and now a storm warning is in place through this afternoon when the winds will drop below 50 knots and a Gale warning will be posted. The seas have been building to almost 20 ft. This event is forecast to last until at least Monday night, perhaps Tuesday.
That’s about it for our hood so looking north now to the west coast of America where starting out in the northern Pacific I can see the storms lined up moving east toward the west coast.
With that huge blocking high out of the way the storm gate is now open and a more winter pattern will be over the west coast for the next week.
The first of a series of potent weather systems has already begun to spread into southwest Washington and northwest Oregon this morning. This first front has caused winds to increase along the Oregon coast and 45-55 knot winds were forecast for last night.
Today the weather will be pretty much limited to the Great Northwest and then tomorrow another impulse will moved into northern California and then Wednesday a stronger impulse will arrive in southern California. Wednesday and Thursday it looks like the entire west coast will be getting wet.
Each of these storms will be successively colder with snow levers initially around 4500 ft will be dropping to the foothills late Wednesday or Thursday morning.
Looking now over to the southwest where they can expect to have dry and warm daytime conditions today. Today is expected to be the warmest day with a high at Tucson of 81 degrees this afternoon. Tomorrow will be warm as well.
Then Wednesday the first in a series of impulses from California is forecast to move across SE Arizona Wednesday night and Thursday. There is a chance of some showers and perhaps be breezy Thursday around Tucson.
Back on this side of the border we should be having a very pleasant day on the Sea of Cortez with the winds throughout the Sea in the 15 knot or less ranges this afternoon. Temperatures will be up a bit and be in the low to mid 70s today.

.looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that some light whispys passed over the cape area for most of yesterday.
This morning the entire Sea is pretty much free of any clouds. That may change this afternoon as a large area of cloudiness is drifting up from about 120. The weak jet that was there yesterday is now gone so this scattered band of clouds may just fizzle out as they approach the southern Baja coast. We’ll know this afternoon.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning I can see that the entire stretch of the coast line is free of any clouds this morning.
Looking now at the Tehuantepec where the advisories keep jumping back in forth between Gale and Storm force winds. This is not place you want to be right now. These conditions will exist throughout the weekend into Monday
Looking now out into the Eastern Pacific Basin where high pressure and a few whispys dominate the area between here and Hawaii this morning.
That’s 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 storm gate is open for the Great Northwest.
There is a long tropical plume feeding a cold front that is bringing rain and snow to Oregon and Washington this morning. This is just the first of a series of systems that will be moving through the area over the weekend. Snow level is forecast to dip to around 1000 ft on Monday.
To the south California will remain dry through the weekend THEN starting with northern California on Monday, central California on Tuesday
And southern California on Wednesday a strong low and associated cold front will move down from the Gulf of Alaska bringing snow to the sierras and southern California Mountains and rain to the valleys.
Over in the southwest today the high pressure aloft will bring dry and warmer weather to the region through the middle of next week. Tomorrow and Monday Tucson will most likely see 80 degrees for the first time this year.
Toward the end of next week that system that will be wetting down California will move east and they could see some mountain snow and valley rain. We’ll see?
Back down here across the border there is still enough of a gradient to keep these 20 knot winds honking in the Sea of Cortez for one more day. The gradient should start to relax today and by tomorrow we should be seeing the winds relax.
Here in Mulegé we have the annual Pig Races on Sunday and traditionally that has always been a very pleasant day wind-wise. Right now it looks the weather will again cooperate with us for this event. I am the MC for that event and I always look forward to calling the pig races. Great Fun!
I digress; enough about pigs.
Today temperatures will be in the mid 60s to low 70s.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see basically the same image I have been looking at for the past couple of days. Convection moving north up from around 135 is picked up by the West/East flow in the basin and is moving a broad plume of broken clouds toward Baja again this morning. I noted that a very weak jet is about the center of this flow toward Baja so the clouds are moving a bit faster than they were yesterday.
Without that ridge of high pressure any longer off the California coast this plume of clouds very well could move further north up the Baja peninsula today. We’ll see? Right now the plume is sort of spread out from about Concepcion Bay and La Paz this morning. We have a few whispys over the bay this morning.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning this image is not showing any clouds at all along mainland coast this morning.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where pulses of cold air rushing through the Chivela pass across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec are keeping the gale warnings up. No sooner than one warning expire than another one is posted. Tomorrow afternoon the winds could climb to storm force velocity, with 18 foot seas.
Not a lot more going on the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning so looking now to the north to the west coast of America where at the top of this image I can see that that high that was posted off the Oregon/Washington coast for almost two weeks has now migrated into the Great Basin and opened the storm door to the Pacific Northwest.
The first of several low pressure systems is moving through Northern Oregon and Washington this morning bringing rain to the area.
There is a big honk’n low centered in the Gulf of Alaska that is forecast to start moving down the coast this weekend and by mid week most of the west coast including California will need umbrellas.
Looking over to the southwest where dry weather will continue with a strong warming trend into early next week as high pressure spreads in from the west.
It should start off cool this morning but warm up to seasonal values this afternoon. They can expect to see daytime highs to be about 5-12 degrees above normal from tomorrow through next Tuesday. Monday could see the first 80 degree reading of the year for Tucson.
Back across the border it looks like we will be seeing a couple more days of brisk northerlies. With the gradient relaxing between here and the Great Basin it looks like Sunday we should return to our normal winter pattern of moderate afternoon northerlies. We’ll see?
Temperatures today will be in the high 60s to low 70s.

.Looking down into the Sea this morning it looks pretty much like yesterday with a few clouds drifting over the cape area yesterday and during the night.
There is a lot of cloudiness in the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning however we have not seen the southern jet, aka the Pineapple Express in several days so with nothing to accelerate the normal west/east flow they are just drifting toward Baja as well as into the northern Mexican Riviera again this morning. So it looks like just more whispys in store for that area again today.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera it looks like those clouds do not go any further south than Cabo Corrienties. The rest of the Riviera has a few fluffys here and there but it looks like mostly sunshine is on tap for them today.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where it looks like gale force winds will continue to pulse through the Chivela Pass keeping the Tehuantepec bay impassable at least through the weekend. Gale warnings have been posted.
Looking out into the Eastern Pacific Basin I can see there is not a lot of activity along the ITCZ this morning. The only hot spot is a flair around 135 that is pumping a lot of clouds into the basin.
Looking over to the west of Hawaii where a long plume of tropical moisture yesterday took dead aim on the gulf of Alaska then moved over the top of the Pacific high and then east into British Columbia, this morning with the high weakening this plume is forming a giant counterclockwise spiral in the gulf of Alaska forming a low there that will be a weather maker in the Great Northwest starting tomorrow.
That’s it for down here so looking now north to the west coast of America most of the western conus is under high pressure and clear skies.
With that blocking high out of the way it is opening the gates for a series of lows systems to start moving into the west coast. Right now it looks like California will be getting wet around next Wednesday. We’ll see?
In the meantime mostly sunshine and breezy on-shore winds for southern California.
Over in the southwest it will continue to be on the cool side today. As high pressure rebuilds over the region warmer temperatures will move in this weekend into early next week.
Now, back on this side of the border where the Sea will be rather lumpy today with brisk northerlies from the far north to the East Cape. The forecast is for the winds to be in the 22-26 knot ranges.
The next 3 days the central Sea will be seeing these brisk winds starting early and peaking in the mid afternoons.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that most of the Sea has had drifting high clouds passing over for the past 24 hours. These are multi-level clouds and are a mix of whispys and fluffys, mostly whispys. There are enough out there to offer partially cloudy conditions for most of the Sea today, again mostly whispys.
They are emanating from a hot spot on the ITCZ around 115. They drift northeast toward Baja and to a lesser extent the Mexican Riviera. There is not a lot of moisture in this wide scattered band of clouds. No jet stream support again today so they are sort of meandering over the area.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera this morning it looks like from about Mazatlan to Puerto Vallarta will see the bulk of these high clouds today.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where the Tehuantepecker season is in full swing. Trying to find a window this time of year is always iffy. Today is no exception. Satellite imagery is showing 20K winds this morning however gale force winds will be funneling through the Chivela pass later this morning and Voila you’ve got another Tehuantepecker brewing. This one should be of short duration and back to around 20 knots by Friday.
Looking now at the ITCZ which is running around 8 north this morning. I mentioned that hot spot around 115. There is another smaller flair out around 135. There is just a moderate amount of clouds moving northward into the Eastern Pacific Basin from this area of convection.
Off to the west of Hawaii I can see a long narrow tropical plume that extends from the western Pacific into the Gulf of Alaska this morning that is staying to the west of that Pacific high off the Oregon coast.
This high will start to weaken today and slowly start it’s migration to the east. With this blocking high out of the way, by late in the weekend the next Pacific storms will be able to reach the west coast.
That’s it for down here so looking back to the west coast of America where the entire west coast is under mostly clear skies and seasonally warm weather.
This pleasant weather should last through the weekend then that Pacific high that has been blocking storms for almost two weeks will be out of the way and a nice honker will be dropping down from the Gulf of Alaska on Monday. Right now it looks like next week the west coast will be cooler and wet.
This morning southern California is seeing the end of the very moderate Santa Ana wind event. It will however remain breezy there.
Looking now over into the southwest this morning where they will see some cooling as a result of that passing system yesterday. High pressure will rebuild today and provide the area with dry conditions and near to slightly above normal temperatures for the rest of the week.
Back down here across the border it looks like we are in for a few days of brisk to strong northerlies in the afternoons. Tomorrow should see the strongest for the 3 day forecast period. Today the central Sea will see ballpark 20 knots in the afternoon, add 5 knots to that for tomorrow.
The Sea will have occasional overcast conditions today as these scattered clouds move in from the Pacific.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that Baja has had some clouds drifting over in during night.
Bringing up the 300 mb jet stream analysis I can see that the tropical jet that has been transporting convection toward Mexico from along the ITCZ is no longer there this morning. So no Pineapple Express this morning.
These scattered clouds that I’m seeing now have just drifted north off the zone into the Eastern Pacific Basin and then are drifting with the west/east flow toward Baja.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera I can see that they too will see a few scattered clouds today however not as many as the past couple of days.
Looking now at the ITCZ I can see just one area that has some developing convection and that is around 115 this morning and that is where most of these clouds are coming from
Looking back over to the Gulf of Tehuantepec this morning where the Tehuantepecker continues with mostly gale force winds being reported at land based stations, however winds are known to be significantly higher over the open waters of the gulf than these land based stations during such events. So they could be seeing almost storm force winds this morning.
The winds should drop quickly as that cold front in the Gulf of Mexico moves out of the area as forecast.
That’s about it for our hood. I can see mostly whispys between here and Hawaii this morning so looking north now to the west coast of America where there is not much going on along the coast except a moderate Santa Ana winds event that’s forecast to pick back up again this evening.
The major weather story is a 125-155 knot jet stream that is bringing cold air down from Canada. By 2am this morning the low had moved out of northern Utah and Nevada and was sitting on the Arizona border.
This cold front will be just brushing northern Arizona this morning. A few showers will be possible in the mountains generally northeast of Tucson later today and into early Wednesday as the system passes to the east. Cooler temperatures will be on tap area-wide Wednesday before rebounding later in the week.
This is a rather dry, albeit cold system. During the day the system will continue moving to the south with winds increasing everywhere particularly along the lower Colorado River Valley. Winds will be the main issue from this system in Arizona today even though there will be a chance of some rain and snow showers at the highest elevations tonight.
Back on this side of the border it looks like very moderate northerlies in the northern Sea and from about San Franciscito south the winds will have a southern flavor. This will be a one-day southern wind event with the winds swinging back to the northwest tomorrow as that cold front moves off to the east tomorrow.
So today expect to see 15-20 knot southerlies in the central and southern Seas. Well, a bit less along the East Cape today.
And it looks like after today we will be seeing at least a couple of days of brisk northerlies as high pressure rebuilds over the Great Basin.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that high pressure off the west coast of California is keeping the Sea of Cortez free of any clouds.
To the south, around the cape, I can see that just a few scattered whispys have passed over that area in the past 24 hours.
Further south around Cabo Corrienties south to around Zihuatanejo they have had a mix of scattered fluffys and whispys for the past 24 hours and it looks like that pattern will continue all day.
There is a lot of convection building along the ITCZ this morning from about 110 to around 130. As these clouds drift toward the Mexican Riviera they are being picked up by a short jet stream and are streaming over that area I just mentioned at around 130 mph.
Looking at the big picture of the Eastern Pacific Basin I can see that a huge cyclone is around that high off the California coast. It is keeping an area in the Pacific clear of any clouds from the Oregon border to southern Baja and Hawaii to the California coast.
It rather interesting to watch the storms move over the top of this high and drop into British Columbia and then Idaho and the Great Basin.
That’s about it for down here so looking now north to the west coast of America where high pressure is warming things up along the coast and keeping the west coast dry. Well, of course Seattle is getting wet this morning but that’s to be expected.
This high pressure is expected to amplify and remain in place until later next week. In the meantime southern California will have a weak cold front sneak through probably Monday that will briefly cool thing down then warm back up again as the system moves into the Great Basin.
Looking over into the southwest where the temps are still below freezing this morning in many locations. A strong warming trend is expected over the weekend and into early next week as high pressure edges back in from the Eastern Pacific. Another storm will impact the area around the middle of the week but it looks like it will be moisture starved.
Back on this side of the border the winds are the major topic. How much and where? Well, the central Sea should see the strongest winds today with the southern sea coming in a close second.
How much is the big question? The guys with the PHDs and the gazillion dollar computers are saying the winds in the central Sea should be in the 20 knot ranges today and relaxing later today and this evening. Tomorrow with the high pressure rebuilding over the Great Basin( this is a retrograde high moving west from the Rockies back into the Great Basin) the winds will kick up to the 20-25 ranges for the Sunday and Monday for the Sea.
I have noted that the restaurants are already running out of fresh fish and it looks like another couple of days before the weather will cooperate for the fisherman or the sailors in the Sea or Cortez.
The good news today is the gale that has been in the Sea for the past 3 days is now over. The high gust here at my palapa was 57 knots. That is the highest wind I’ve recorded here with the exception of hurricanes in the past 5 years. Looking around here on the beaches I can see several roofs missing from palapas and homes. When my neighbor’s roof went flying it took the south end of my inverted “V” antenna with it, breaking the wire at the apex of the antenna. . Yesterday I located the wire and lowered the antenna and re-soldered the connection, re-raised it and Voila! I’m back on the air.

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that with the exception of a few whispys passing over the Sea, mostly around the cape area, the Sea has been pretty much free of any clouds in the past 24 hours.
This morning satellite imagery is showing the Sea to be cloud free.
Looking south to the Mexican Riviera I can see that most of the clouds moving in from the Pacific were spread out from about Mazatlan south to Cabo Corrienties yesterday. The same is true for this morning.
There is an area of convection between 110 and 120 along the ITCZ this morning that is being picked up by a subtropical jet and transporting these clouds over to that area between Puerto Vallarta and Cabo Corrienties. There is not a lot of convection there; however it looks like some of the clouds will be passing over with dark bottoms, but in general they look like mostly whispys.
This subtropical jet is the first instance this year of what we laymen call the “Pineapple Express”. From the ITCZ it travels across Mexico, the Gulf of Mexico, travels up the eastern seaboard and then hooks back into the Great Lakes this morning.
Looking further south to the Tehuantepec where strong high pressure is forecast to build behind a cold front moving through the Gulf of Mexico. This will tighten the gradient across the isthmus and result in a Tehuantepecker tonight with gale force winds tonight and into Thursday.
Taking a last look around the Eastern Pacific Basin this morning I can see that most of the basin has overcast skies this morning all the way out to Hawaii.
That’s it for down here so looking north now to the west coast of America where surface high pressure has blanketed the western conus. It was 1055 over Wyoming this morning. The Great Basin is ballpark 1044.
Over the top of this surface low a bitterly cold arctic low system will be moving down from Canada today bringing subzero temps with it. When I lived in Texas they called these “Blue Northers”.
So we have a double whammy on tap for today. Big time gradient from the Great Basin to the Sea that will be producing gale force winds for a couple of days and this “Blue Norther” that is descending toward Arizona. It will be producing a hard freeze this morning, tomorrow morning and probably Friday morning. Daytime highs will set record lows for Arizona today and tomorrow.
Arizona will also see some high winds especially around the lower Colorado River Valley Area, aka, the northern end of the Sea.
Now back down here across the border, as advertized we will be having a gale force wind event today, tomorrow and most likely Friday with the strongest winds forecast for today. Hopefully if you are on the Sea you have prepared, if not it’s a bit too late to panic as the winds have already started to build.
It seems like the morning after these big winds here in the bay I hear a call on VHF from someone saying there dingy or small boat has been stolen off the beach. I suspect a passing grade in Knot Tying 101 would have saved the dingy. .

Voice to Text……….
.Looking down into the Sea this morning I can see that clouds from the Pacific have continued to pass over the cape area for the past 24 hours.
Yesterday a 125 mph jet stream developed from the Gulf of Alaska and streams south through California and then hooks a hard left off the Baja peninsula and moves over Baja, the Sea of Cortez, and the mainland and into the Gulf of Mexico. No pineapples in this express, perhaps maybe a snowball.
The Eastern Pacific Basin is about 90% blanketed with clouds this morning. Some of them look to be heavy with moisture. This upper level jet is transporting them toward Baja mostly from about Puerto Escondido south to around Manzanillo this morning. I’d say about 70% of these clouds are whispys. So mostly passing whispys in the southern Sea with some fat fluffys joining the mix from time to time.
From about Puerto Escondido north the Sea looks to be mostly clear with just a few high whispys passing over today.
As I mentioned the Riviera will see mostly sunshine today.
Looking south to the Tehuantepec it looks pleasant today with less than 10 knot winds forecast but by tomorrow evening there should be a full blown Tehuantepecker brewing in the gulf that should last into Friday.
That’s about it for down here so looking now north to the west coast of America where major changes in the weather will be occurring this weak. First looking at the coast: No rain is forecast for today but a Santa Ana wind event is staging today and southern California will be gusterly through Thursday.
The big new is taking place in the Great Basin. Strong high pressure there this morning is 1055 creating a 46mb gradient between Southern Idaho and southern Arizona this morning.
Here is what is happening today. High pressure will continue to build over the Great Basin. A large very cold arctic upper level low will retrograde from the northern Rockies (that is, move west) and move into the 4 corners area later today ON TOP of the high pressure building there. It will continue to retrograde into northern Arizona later today bringing subfreezing temps with it.
This very cold arctic airmass will dive south across Arizona and bring the coldest February temps to the area in over 20 years. Not only will the overnight lows be near record cold, but the daytime highs will be very unseasonably cold with most locations setting daily records for low maximum temps on tomorrow and Thursday. Perhaps less than 45 degrees for both days in Tucson.
That’s what is going on to the north of us. Well almost: The eastern portion of the United States is forecast to have a mega storm developing starting today as a big honk’n low moves down from Canada.
Now, south of the border here in Baja today. It will be the lull before the storm today. Pleasant winds and mostly sunshine.
Tomorrow, (and it looks like the winds will start early), will be the start of a Gale Force wind event with winds to 40 knots in the central Sea. The event should last until perhaps Friday morning with tomorrow having the strongest winds.
The entire Sea will be affected including the southern portion. The models are not backing off these numbers, so if you are in the Sea of Cortez, on the water, try to find a “hidy-hole”. You will have today to check your ground tackle, perhaps double check to make sure your roller furlings are secure. We don’t want to have any incidents coming from this wind event.
With the exception of the southern crossing on the east cape, the Mexican Riviera won’t be affected by this wind event and will only see a slight increase in their winds tomorrow.
