Here in La Manz I recorded 0.74" on Sat (midnight to midnight), 0.76" on Sun, and 0.30" so far today, for a total of 1.80" from this persistent Pacific flow of moisture. It's been nice non-damaging rain. Great for the plants, and boy has it cooled us down the last few days. Me gusta! Invest 95E is now a couple hundred miles to our west, and has a 30% chance of becoming a depression or greater in the next 48 hours. It shouldn't directly affect us, but it is associated with this flow of moisture that has been bringing us the rain. http://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/east-pacific/2014/invest-95E?map=model This morning Invest 95E has generated a large area of thunderstorms out in the Pacific between Puerto Vallarta and the tip of Baja:http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/west/epac/flash-avn.html The Mexican weather agency has issued a rain alert for the middle swath of Mexico including Colima, Jalisco, Nayarit: http://smn.cna.gob.mx/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56&Itemid=59 I personally don't see us getting any really heavy rains, at least not today. Still a chance for light or moderate rains though.
