Mainecoons Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 We are absolutely stuck under a huge high pressure dome that is so strong we aren't even seeing a single cloud in the sky. The sub tropical jet is displaced pretty far to the south over the pacific west of us. The polar jet is further south than usual. Cooler than normal in the western U.S. causes a blocking upper level high that keeps the one over us from shifting north. The Monsoon Trough is displaced south and not generating near the usual amount of tropical waves. Our family in Oaxaca reports the rainy season has not arrived there on schedule, namely towards the end of May. It could be late this year. Very late. Like third week of June. And then weak. This could be a bad year for central Mexico. Hope I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 IMHO I believe RickS wants you to start the yearly thread for guessing when the season will begin. But, maybe he just wanted a weather report. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johanson Posted June 2 Report Share Posted June 2 Gosh, according to the Ajijic weather station, it was 92.6 degrees Fahrenheit yesterday afternoon. I'm sure glad I'm up north in Seattle, hiding from that terrible heat. l sure hope the rain comes soon so that I can come back in early July as scheduled. I wish you folks the best down there.

Don Anomino Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 Let's hope they're at least right about the latter half of June: La cantidad de lluvias en junio podrían ser inferior a lo normal 😔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 Yes, it's hot but I gotta admit that I love that the sun sets at 7 pm and not 8 pm. It's already getting cooler by the time I go to bed at 11 pm. and I'm having no trouble getting to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just joining in on the conversation. AND he did wish you "the best". 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted June 3 Report Share Posted June 3 I come from an area that never gets too hot. And I am always amazed how people from the warmer and/or hotter areas of the US and Canada can stand the hot weather. lI guess you could call me a hate sissy :). At the moment I am making my reservations to come back lakeside, an area I proudly call home about 9 months of the year. I'll be back in early July, once lakeside (in my eyes) becomes paradise, weatherwise again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows us and where we come from and that I don't wish him ill. But I still say he's gloating a tad 😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other one I recall is they don't tan, they rust. 🤣 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Shrall Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 We have been in Guayabitos since late last week and even though we haven't seen rain, every afternoon dark (rainless) clouds build up. In a normal year these clouds would bring a storm so here's hoping that some day soon we'll get some of that liquid sunshine we need.
