Weather??

CBob, we really don't want to see pics like that, especially this time of year....Yuck!

I saw this today earlier, it is shocking! This is just around the corner from us!!! mas o menos

Yep about 1500 ft. higher up. Maybe we can have a ski hill up there in a few years......jaja.

How do you say - "steer into the skid" in mexican ?

Take time to translate and you are gone

The road from Puebla to Vera Cruz was also cosed a some point..that is pretty crazy..

Sparks. No shit. Good thing is our hosts wouldn't even try. Glanced at a few "tread depths" locally today. Yikes. Snow - never. Rain - unlikely. The equation : take a dry spell, add H20 to the pavement = mexican black ice.

"In Mexican"?

A system developing in the Eastern Pacific Ocean will stretch rain into Mexico threatening flooding for this weekend.

Following a front moving from north to south across the country for the end of the week, a low pressure will develop off the Pacific Mexican coasts of Colima and Mechoacan de Ocampo. This moisture steers inland just in time for the weekend.

This weather is a nightmare. We need to leave this week end and I checked the weather from here to Chiapas and it is rain rain and more rain..when we get too much rain in Chiapas we can get floods in Tabasco and the roads can be closed..just what we need on a long week-end..

I see the Octagon is quiet and we're all talking about the weather. How nice. and abnormal.

well the weather is petty abnormal when 2 days in a row the road Puebla Mexico is closed because of snow..The road reopened this morning at 8 and now we have to brace for rain in March.

I agree, bad weather in Mexico should be discussed in the Octagon.

Thanks to once subtle......
They/we are all down in the dungeon, reading,  being as quiet as mice.  

Hey, Slainte, next time you go upstairs grab me a beer will ya? The cooler down here is out.

hahahahahaha

OK. Everyone repeat after me.

It's good for the lake, It's good for the lake.
Then have another adult beverage of your choice.

Whine whine whine. In March of 2003, we lived in the Colorado high country about 35 miles from Denver. We had between 5 and 6 FEET of snow depending on where you measured. I-70 was closed for a week. We called it "The Big Snow".

I have shoveled enough snow for several lifetimes.

Youaresupposedthave snow in Colorado and if you live there that is what you can expect, not so in Mexico.

And that, my friends, is the bottom line.

OOPS: Did I see the word "supposed to"? That's right up there with "should". You know, like the potholes "should" be fixed by April. Words outlawed in Mexico.

Its good for the lake, its good for the lake.
Happy hour!
Two more days to go.

I miss all the unpredictable weather @ Lakeside.....had to turn the A/C on here @ Casa Grande.......87 degrees.
