So....I don’t GAD about mexico (sue me) but I am concerned about Texas. Does anyone have a forecast for the Lone Star state?
If you look you can find what info you need.
I spent a lot of time in Baja in the 90s/early 00s covering off-road racing. Santo Tomas, San Ignacio, Loreto...God it was gorgeous. Totally different mindset of the people there too. A GOOD mindset.
Cartels probably killed them all by now.
I briefly read that the El Nino warmth has something to do with the increase of these storms this year in the east Pacific. Apparently this one “exploded” out of nowhere.
LOL!
My in-laws used to travel to MX by car - drive all over the place and camp, wherever, in the early 70’s. They loved the Baja, too. Mom said she never felt unsafe, but certainly wouldn’t do it now.
Hell, there are parts of, ‘The People’s Republik of Madistan’ that *I* won’t venture into anymore...
Hopefully, not North. Just sayin'.
Thankful I ain't the only one!
By eatly to 2000 there were lotsa problems but if you had a group, you were fairly safe outside the TJ/Cabo type places.
We had scary $$$ of gear/equipment locked in the trucks and never had an issue. Occasionally you had to help fund a Federalie’s beer budget though.
Edit...Early 2000s to 2004ish
As a historian, I am duty bound to be a ‘stickler for the truth.” In this day and age, that is an odd thing, I realize. Thank you for recognizing it. And the example you gave that accurately describes Democrats, liberals, socialists, and progressives.
good for you.....there was a time when parents could trust their older children because maybe we grew up a little more responsible than todays love fest, anything goes..
And said baloney is also inedible!
there must be safe areas in Mexico because people go there snowbirding every year....
From Cat I to Cat 5 in 24hrs.
From 75mph to 207 at it's peak 2 hrs ago.
It's down to 190mph sustained with gusts to 220mph as it's now hitting land.
Nobody alive today has ever seen anything like it hitting land.
A couple have been measured that strong at sea...in the last 100 years.
Yes, the word history means a record of what has happened, to include oral traditions. But to make a comment such as the headline I’m criticizing, one includes all of the past, regardless of whether or not we have an accurate record of it.
And this goes into the ‘global warming/climate change’ debate. We have millions of years of geological records of the climate of the planet changing, but folks disregard it to push their political position. The seas have been much lower than they are now and probably higher, we know that the northern hemisphere was several degrees warmer in the early medieval period, but that is not convenient to those who want to gain political power by claiming the need and ‘ability’ to stop the natural warming of the planet.
Oh, there are. I just don’t want to put any more of my dollars into that country, as a whole.
No rain in Hereford. Heavy rain in Lonepine.
Those are really astonishing shots.
May our Lady of Guadalupe intercede for God’s protection for those in the path of this storm!
Yes, libtards are already claiming El Niño is causing higher global temperatures, ignoring that El Niño only circulates preexisting heat and adds none of its own. For everything El Niño makes warmer something else must get colder. No net global warming is even possible.
