Photo from www.eebmike.com.  5pm report

ON SITE REPORTS and UP TO THE MINUTE!

a. 6:30am
Rained off and on all night in San Bartolo, no arroyos running yet, looks like we will get major rain later this morning.
Robin R. Stewart www.SantanaIron.net

b. 7:30am
MONDAY AFTERNOON SAW INTERMITTENT SHOWERS, THEN ABOUT 1 a.m. A STEADY RAIN STARTED AND LASTED TILL AROUND 6 a.m.LEAVING ABOUT 1/2 " TO 3/4" OF RAIN; LITTLE OR NO WIND HAS OCCURRED. IT STILL LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE MORE RAIN COMING THROUGH OUT THE DAY.

c. 9am: Yes, received a nice steady rain. We need it the cows are starving

d. 9:30am: Tues.9:21 am,the wind just picked up to maybe 20 mph and it looks like it will be bring more rain........Dale

e. 10am
We are getting heavier rain now, looks like Todas Santos will get lots and the central Baja will get it again. There is another storm forming a few hundred Km south that will be fallowing this one. Robin Stewart www.SantanaIron.net

f. 11am: It has been raining off and on since 3:00 a.m. We are now getting waves of hard rain and strong wind gusts.
They are taking out the boats, they always wait too long. Those that are in the water are rocking and rolling. Shirley says the waves are really big.

g. 1125hrs Tues 21st. Exactly 1 inch of rain in the last 24hrs over here in Buenos Aires. Slight road damage on these dirt roads. Wind is gusting to 20 mph but mostly around 10-15mph outta the SSE. It's dark and ominous over the mountains and as most of you well know the rains here in BA are usually less than what surrounds us. Hopefully Georgette will stay on the other side of the mountains. We NEEDED the rain and are now soaked so any further will just be runnin....Temp outside right now is 82 degrees and the rain gusts come and go. Just thought many would be curious do to having homes here.

h. 3:30pm
40 mph wind with steady rain; my guess is that the roads by now are covered with water in the usual areas...............Dale

i.  5:45pm
The majority of the storm in Los Barriles will be over this evening sometime.There is about a15 mph breeze here with scattered showers. I can only guess but i think we had around 2 inches of rain today and  tomorrow will be kind of gorgeous..........

j.  5:45PM
it is pouring and no TV and lights sort of slight blinking.

I'm sending this information to BPE for all dog owners to see. We've used rattle snake vaccine for three years now. Fortunately, it hasn't been put to the ultimate test. But it is available. Contact Red Rocks Biologics at 866-897-7625 or info@redrockbiologics.com  for specific questions. The product is called Crotalus Atrox Toxoid. It must be kept refrigerated. We get it through our U.S. vet. Dosing instructions require the first and second dose be administered three to six weeks apart, then every six months if you live in an area populated with rattlesnakes. It is administered sub Q (under the skin). Hope this helps.

a. Looking for long term rental. My phone is 541-490-0386. I live in Hood River in the summer. I lived in Los Barriles for 6 winters in the '90's and last winter as well. I am now single so I am looking for something a bit less expensive. Even an outdoor kitchen/shower with a bit of indoor space would work. I will be working a bit. I can also do part trade if that works....
Thanks, Sky
