Interesting weather fact.
We're visiting family in Ontario, and like the rest of the continental NE, the weather is unseasonably warm. This morning at 730am, the temp was 15C. I just happened to click on Mazatlan's figure, and...

When people stand around a campfire dressed in hats, coats and gloves at 8:00PM blowing clouds of vapor it ain't 68 or 58.
It chased me the hell down the coast. Warm weather -cool or cold weather spells are natural. Ain't getting senile so you can bet your hind end it was COLD in 03 and it lasted longer than a week. Daytime was OK. But the nights were like San Francisco CA. In 2001 same thing in La Manzanilla
Hotel Puesto del Sol. But in '97 same month I lay atop the sheets same room with the ceiling fan on high all through the night. South of Manzanillo is another world. Consistantly warm day and night. Down here Winters can be far more uncomfortable than summer - the humidity remains the same but afternoon cloud cover and thunderstorm downdrafts make summer delightful.
Ooooo halfway down the Baja peninsula last week I saw FORTY TWO DEGREES at 0500. I do remember being rather shocked in 03 same trip on the way to Guatemala Tehuantepec was 106F with the Tehuantepecker winds roaring at 50 mph. In Las Penas it was 88 at 1500 hours and now past midnight 76. Going back to the peninsula next week continuing with car rehab and Dr appts. Thank god for Volaris and private pilots. I PMA'd a Beechcraft twin, for the ride to Lazaro. When the car is fixed I move to Ensenada for the surgeries then I am GONE. Las Penas in the winter and Guatemala or Nicaragua for the summer. Live somewhere for 10-years the pueblito becomes a bit boring. My kid and granddaughters can survive six months without grandpa.
Nevertheless I remember weather winters and summers well. Feb 2003 at Boca was too cool for me. I'm going to be traveing with my new Thinsulate level 3 comforter. And three Fantastic Fan Endless Breeze fans. The eldest gets new brushes and bushings next week.
The key is to be prepared. Then the weather isn't such a big deal.
