First day of the Eastern Pacific hurricane season

It's raining north and south of us but only partly cloudy here with no sign of precipitation. Humidity is really creeping up

Al mismo tiempo, funcionarios de la Comisión Nacional del Agua (Conagua), dieron a conocer que este año se espera una temporada de huracanes muy intensa, por arriba del promedio histórico en el Océano Pacífico por lo prevén mucha lluvia para esta región.

La Conagua en su primer cálculo de la temporada de ciclones para este año, pronostica 19 ciclones para el Pacífico, de los cuales, 8 serán tormentas tropicales, 11 huracanes moderados y 4 intensos, por lo que las autoridades ya están tomando las precauciones del caso por tanta actividad ciclónica en las costas del Pacífico Mexicano.

May 15th

The web site was activated early this season with the low that swept in about a week ago but normally today would be the day. Sure were hoping for a little rain but didn't get it and none is showing for the future. I was forced to leave sprinklers on over night so my garden can get at least a little water that they let loose.

Today we're off to Manzanillo for some shopping and Burger King for the kids.

TODAY MARKS THE FIRST DAY OF THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC HURRICANE SEASON, WHICH WILL RUN UNTIL NOVEMBER 30. LONG-TERM AVERAGES FOR THE NUMBER OF NAMED STORMS, HURRICANES, AND MAJOR HURRICANES ARE 15, 8, AND 4, RESPECTIVELY.

First low pressure system of the season

The Eastern Pacific hurricane season starts on the 15th, only four days away. This Invest 90 is a few days early but probably will bring nothing but clouds and a bit of rain. This season is expected to be busier than the past two which were below normal. Most activity is scheduled for late in the season due to El Nino effects. West coast of Mexico
