Bottom line: GUSTY strong winds most reliably and strongest OUTSIDE once clouds clear. Punta Bufeo far to the north is already seeing 28g37. Watch our Rasta Beach sensor for early warning!


Today’s wind recipe:

1. High-pressure in the Great Basin sends NNW winds down the Sea of Cortez.

2. Low-pressure south of Cabo sucks this wind to Baja’s East Cape.

3. Tight isobars mean strong surface winds and powerful NNE winds 1000 feet aloft means GUSTY winds.

4. Mountains down the length of Baja funnel this winds towards us.

5. So strong winds from Rasta Beach to past La Ribera.

6. Strong Santa Ana winds for Southern California. 7. Strong NE winds at some Pacific side beaches.
