It's been a lot quieter in the eastern Pacific than they were predicting so far. Guess we'll see how far inland the rains come. Hopefully they are responding with preparations on the coast to minimize any loss of life.

With all the potential rain on the way I would have liked to have monitored the lake level but the link no longer displays any data...???

Yes, I have noticed that too. Visually I can see that the lake is still slowly rising but no sharp rise like previous years. The lirio and floating masses indicate the dams are open.

It looks like https://www.ceajalisco.gob.mx/ has let their security certificate expire. Whoever manages that website let the ball drop.

If you look at 5 different weather sites you'll get 5 different predictions. It's crazy.

I have given up on Ventusky. They are wrong far more times than they're right. Try looking at it when it's socked in here and dumping... ni una gota according to their site.

Yeah. Got a light sprinkle about 15 minutes ago and the stones are nearly dry again. It would be nice, though, if there was a site that could forecast correctly but I'm afraid there are too many small micro climates around the lake to make it even possible.

Yeah and be glad we aren't in one of the drought stricken areas of Mexico.

I´m glad I´m one of the few people who could care less about weather forecasts…….
Never have. so I´m never upset by forecasters
If it´s raining, I don´t go out, and if I am out, I head for cover. You can kind of expect rain anytime during the rainy season, or possibly when it´s cloudy.
Now farmers have a lot more at stake and people living in coastal areas need to be prepared, so they have good cause for wanting accurate forecasts.

Looks like the coastal ranges have blocked Lorena from getting to us. Hope all is well out on the coast.
