tip of Baja California Sur over the next 24-36hrs. Parts of East Cape and
Los Cabos have already seen rain, moderate to heavy at times.
Residents of the southern most portion of Baja Sur may have chance of rain
though tomorrow night. Ivo is expected to dissipate into a tropical low by
late Tuesday. Effects of this
weather system should be minor For travelers, roadways during and
immediately after passage of the rain bands may be flooded and some washouts may
occur, depending on the amount of rain received. For tourists, evidence of
the passing of the storm will usually be cleaned up with 24hrs. And for
residents, it means additional rain for our water table.

Ivo is a bit of a disappointment for many in Baja Sur. The storm was never
forecast to become a dangerous hurricane and much of Baja Sur could use the
additional rain.
Tropical Storm Ivo was down graded to Tropical Depression Ivo at 3AM on
09/23.
Hurricane Ivo was downgraded to a Tropical Storm at 3PM MDT on 09/21.
Ivo became a hurricane in the 9PM report from the NHC on 09/19.
Tropical Storm Ivo evolved from TD12E in the 9PM release from the National
Hurricane Center in 9/18.
Tropical Depression 12E formed about 670 miles south by southeast of Cabo
San Lucas and was declared a tropical depression at 11AM on 09/18/07..
We will continue to monitor the progress of this system over the next few
days. The best we could hope for is for the system to weaken to a depression
before making landfall in Baja Sur and deliver more much needed rain.
