Las Cabañuelas - they're back

Recommended Posts

Thunder and rain this morning and according to Weather Underground much more to come, with heavy rain and the coldest temperatures of the season. Brings back memories of rained-out Chili Festivals and such from Februaries past.

Good article on what is after all a regular winter occurrence more often than not (as we tend to forget after just one winter like last year's when we dodge the cabañuela bullet).

Due to the unfortunate demise of the Lake Chapala Weather Net site we no longer have their excellent chart showing average rainfall over the past ~10 years but one of the highlights as I recall was seeing that some rain in January and up to a couple of inches in February is in fact typical. The "it never rains in the winter" fantasy is right up there with the "it only rains at night in the summer" one: great for realtors, not so much so for full-time residents.
