Time For The Annual Guess Start of Rainy Season Thread


Recommended Posts

Hearing a little thunder out there tonight from moisture being brought up by El Niño so let's get cracking on the Guess Start of Rainy Season Thread.

Rule:  Two storms in three days, 1 inch total, clear easterly flow on satellite views.  Date of first storm in the series determines winner.

My guess is a bit later this year.  June 21. I think stronger southwest flow will delay onset of easterlies that carry the rainy season.  I'll also climb further out on the limb and predict a below average season here. 

Post your guess and I'll edit this post to periodically list all of them as they come in.  Amateur meteorologists feel free to post why you picked that date.

June 11 mid-afternoon about 3.

 

I will be lamenting the start because THIS is my favorite time of year here and we are not going north this summer so I will have to suffer a rainy season - ugh.

Over an inch of rain last night!  Don't get excited though, came out of the west.  Definitely an El Niño caused phenomenon.  Pacific moisture over central and southern Mexico has really deepened.

Sure freshened things up.  Nice!
