I just can't believe this.

So pretty.

So smart.

So young.

So sad.

 

God rest your soul dear Laurie.


In Topic: Chapala vs. SMA Climatology - the facts!

Servicio Meteorologico shows NO weather stations in Chapala that I could find..  No reasons to get your feathers all fluffy - just asking specifically where you got the data from as it is definitely NOT from a weather station in Chapala.

 

No fly in that ointment cause no weather station is chapala..

 I found the CHAPALA station there.  Perhaps the station is not there anymore but it does cite the (rough) location of one. 

20°17'00" N. 103°12'00" W.

 

But as you can see, a 'weather station' is not very big and could be anywhere.

I still have the same question - what is the source of the data for Chapala as I really don't think Chapala has a weather station.  The closest I could find would be Atequiza but that doesn't make sense.

 

Can you please provide a source for your data - even sourcing the national weather service data that you used for chapala would help - as I am sure I am not the only one wondering where the weather station in Chapala is and has been for 30 years.

 

As an added note - I agree with previous posters that weather is not going to be an issue when deciding to live in San Miguel or Lake Chapala - as each has its pluses and minuses - depends on what is important to you....

 

But back to facts - looking for facts about the chapala weather station as I think the facts are: it does not exist - 

 

Why don't you spend half as much time looking at the whole picture as opposed to dwelling on finding the fly in the ointment.

What part of:

*ALL DATA FROM SERVICIO METEOROLÓGICO NACIONAL de MEXICO

seems to evade you?

 

A weather station looks like this:

OK. just to save face, here is climatological data for San Miguel de Allende, Chapala, Guadalajara and Cuernavaca (just for kicks).

The data is old but spans 20 -30 years and was collected and published by Servicio Meteorológico Nacional (SMN).

OK folks.

I think my earlier data is flawed.

I did however find some data from Servicio Meteorológico Nacional weather stations. Chapala & San Miguel.

On first look...it ceratinly appears the comments from the 'boots on the ground' will be proven correct.

I will repost the new data soon.

Sorry I engaged my mouth before I fully engaged my brain. Lo siento.
