¡Buenos dias! A satellite pass last evening measured very light south winds near Cerralvo, and all of the latest forecast models continue to show light winds for today. Surface low pressure responsible for our light winds will move across the northern Baja Peninsula today, then surface high pressure will begin building into our region from the Pacific on Sunday. Although some model forecasts show some west component to the background flow tomorrow, I’ll be optimistic for now that full sunshine will draw the background NNW wind onshore during the afternoon. Models are in excellent agreement that surface high pressure will strengthen as it builds into the western U.S. on Monday, with low-end norte conditions developing here. The norte should subside a bit on Tuesday, but surface high pressure is forecast to remain parked over the interior west of the U.S. through Friday, with north background flow only slowly decreasing Thursday and Friday.
