Bottom line: Weak northeasterly winds are possible in mountainous areas, along with strong northerly winds. If you're camping, it's best to pack your gear and pup and be prepared for strong winds before dawn tomorrow, especially near El Sagento.
Monday style recipes: The wind reservoir is almost empty, so there are only weak hot northeast winds blowing into our coastal valleys, strongest in the La Ventana to Rasta Beach area. But tomorrow the wind gods are preparing a feast!
Tuesday's weather forecast:
- Tonight, a 1,400-mile-wide Canadian high pressure moves southward, centered on the U.S. 4 Corners region, creating a huge pressure gradient over the Sea of Cortez and Southern California.
2. If you're a night owl, you can watch these winds approach by watching our Playa El Paraiso sensor in the northern Sea of Cortez.
3. In La Ventana, winds develop around midnight, as they have in the past, and then stay offshore in the morning until the valley warms.
4. These winds are accelerated by strong low-pressure southeasterly winds from Cabo, which give them an unfavorable NNW angle.
5. Then, as the valley warms, the wind blows to the shore, but it’s very windy
