La Paz Baja California Sur

Hurricane IVO is not a highly organized category one hurricane as seen on this satellite picture, but it sure is doing much better than the wannabe Subtropical Storm in the Gulf of Mexico slated to be named Jerry. IVO has a small window of opportunity to strengthen its force to more hostile conditions before clearing the Baja area. The weak hurricane will begin to encounter more drier air and some wind shear that will likely begin a weakening trend in about a day or so. The areas of Cabo San Lucas to Conquista & La Paz need to monitor - Locations located in southern Baja California from Cab San Lucas, northward up the western coast through the Sierra De La Laguna National Park to Conquista and eastward to La Paz need to closely monitor the progress of Hurricane IVO as computer models all are in agreement on a potential Baja threat. Although the hurricane is forecast to weaken significantly before reaching the Baja peninsula, there is still some chance it could hold together longer than expected and bring weak hurricane force gusts or strong tropical storm force winds by the beginning of the new week. Late Sunday night through late Tuesday looks to be the most unsettled weather associated with Hurricane IVO. There you have it……… Nothing too impressive happening with IVO at this time and if things change I’ll post a update for those monitoring the eastern Pacific hurricane this weekend.
