Norte Predictions

[Dave Dillehay]

For many years, having lived in Cozumel and Galveston, I have noticed a direct correlation of Nortes. Usually 1-2 days after it arrives in Galveston Cozumel gets it.

Given advance years I spend most of my time in Galveston. Would the Board like me to post every time it Arrives in Galveston?

Up to you -- I don't think it would hurt. People can skip over if they don't care / don't want to read.

How's the upcoming weekend look in Houston? I fear my Sun-Wed diving next week is at risk.

We'd rather you just send it back to Dallas.

Galveston prediction is for a mild Norte on Saturday. "IF" it carries thru to Cozumel it may be Sunday or Monday.

I just look at Windy.com and their ten day sliding forecast. It's been pretty accurate so far.

I see much the same from Austin. If the system hits here with a mostly west wind it may or may not impact Cozumel. but if it comes from the north it nearly always affects the island a day or two later.

Yeah, Port Captain closed the port at 20:00 on Saturday. Comment from my dive shop was “…COZUMEL SCUBA DIVERS---THE PORT IS CLOSED.---At the 2000 hr report the Port captain closed the waters. This means that there will be no diving tomorrow probably all day. The forecast also looks to keep the waters closed for a few days.----------“
