¡Buenos dias! An Oceansat satellite pass last evening showed the leading edge of the next norte had made it to Mulege, and all of the latest model forecasts show the norte reaching us by midday. Winds will steadily increase through the afternoon, especially just offshore, with gusty conditions likely. The norte will likely persist through Wednesday, and with a sunny day expected, we should see a good thermal boost as well. Models are still showing an unusually rapid transition from strong high pressure to low pressure over the southwestern U.S. on Thursday, with light background flow the result here. Similar conditions are likely on Friday, with marginal winds expected at this point. Long-range models forecasts are in good agreement that surface high pressure will build into the interior west of the U.S. on Saturday, leading to a tightening of the surface pressure gradient over BCS and solid north flow returning here. A similar weather pattern is forecast to hold into the beginning of next week.
