¡Buenos dias! We scored yesterday as the wind gauge at the campground measured 10-minute sustained winds of 20-24 mph from 11 am until around 4 pm. Today will not be a repeat, as although northwest winds of 10 knots were measured near Cerralvo last evening by an Oceansat satellite pass, all of the latest batch of numerical model forecasts show the background flow decreasing significantly today. That said, a couple of the models do show just enough north flow remaining this afternoon, and with only a few thin, high clouds expected, we could see rideable winds for a few hours…especially along northern beaches. Models are in good agreement that another pulse of north flow will arrive on Wednesday, and with sunny skies expected, we should see a windy afternoon. Similar conditions are expected Thursday and Friday with most of the models showing ample north background flow and continued sunny skies. As surface high pressure begins to build into the interior west of the U.S on Saturday, model forecasts are in excellent agreement that the surface pressure gradient will tighten over BCS, with north flow increasing. A late season norte is possible on Sunday as the high far to our north continues building southward. Long-range model forecasts show solid north flow will likely last into the beginning of next week
