artsnob Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 It is pouring rain right now in Ajijic Centro, I hope this is early start of rainy season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckieHoomever Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 My friend in the Raquet Club just told me that the deluge has started to flood part of her house. (Only 1/4 inch in 2 rooms so far) Any other reports? (Likely not yet, if people are too frantically trying to stem the flow.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWMtnMama Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Rain in Riberas earlier and thunder so maybe more later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Still raining lightly at my house this AM in Upper Ajijic. It was a major storm...just like during the rainy season. The worst part was not having electricity with the 100% humidity. Talk about sweating.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Same every year. Look at the other thread where stats have been provided for the last 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floradude Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Lucky you. I would have given anything for one of those in my bedroom last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 I bought them in 2018 when CFE was doing all the work in Riberas del Pilar. Why they did the work starting in May is anyone's guess but there were rolling blackouts for two months during the hottest time of the year. Those two fans saved my furry girls and me. One for them and one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Not all that heavy at my house in SE Ajijic but welcome nevertheless. Amazing electrical storm! This is NOT the start of the rainy season. It is the result of some sort of strange wind pattern pulling moisture up from the south and driving it all the way into the SW of the U.S. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned out to be absolutely correct. I wonder how long this weather pattern will persist... https://www.facebook.com/METEOROMEX/posts/pfbid0YEWhxPYcYwrtRPBfWukrHSUaxjvU6wtQgjd4bktRroafxYUJ7YLToBk8rV4G3Xtjl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainecoons Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 Back to May before the rains. Should be heating up today, more tomorrow. Strong SW winds aloft remain, while this cuts down on the pollution the rains can't begin until these abate and the easterlies gain traction. I am expecting a late start to the rainy season this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
