In Baja California: Ensenada will see a sunny Monday and partly cloudy days the rest of the work week. Temperatures will run in the mid 70's through the forecast period. In Mexicali it will be sunny and brisk on Monday with temperatures in the low 70's. Tuesday will see partly cloudy and even cooler with temperatures not returning to the upper 70's. In San Felipe it is going to be windy from the north through Wednesday. Winds will peak Monday around 25kts but each afternoon through Wednesday winds will peak over 20kts. Thursday will be a little better with winds peaking 15kts. 

In Baja California Sur: The forecast calls for sunny Monday and temperatures in the low 80's today and for the winds to blow on Tuesday. But here in La Paz the winds have already begun to blow to 15kts from the north. The temperatures are forecast to dip below the 80°F mark fro the rest of the 10 day forecast ahead. In La Paz as stated we have a stuff breeze from the north to 15kts and are expecting a partly cloudy and 80°F with winds increasing Tuesday to 20kts from the north. Things won't settle down until Thursday with sunny skies and temps back around 80°F. In Los Cabos the forecast calls for sunny skies through Thursday with temps in the low 80's. 

The Crossing: Now that the Mexican cruising fleet has returned we'll drop Tropical Watch for what is happening in the crossing from southern Baja to the Mexican mainland. Monday will begin a period of winds from the north in our first true Norther in The Sea. In the center crossing winds will peak Tuesday morning around 20kts with seas 5-7' on 13sec. It  will settle out a bit late Tuesday but look for another surge on Wednesday morning. A strong offshore from San Blass on Wednesday. A better time to cross will come Thursday. 

Enjoy your day!
