En El Ojo de Zih

We are with you-bring back the humidity, our sinuses are rebelling!

The turtle nesting pattern is different this year than last year. During the peak season this year we averaged a steady 15+ nests per night for several months. They stopped in November, and we had one in January.

Last year during peak season we had a high of 50 nests, but they were over a much shorter time. However all winter we would have a nest or two a week.

Interesting, fun to observe, we have been keeping notes and will continue to!

Another nipper night as a frente frío blew by. Must've dipped just below 20°C again. Might have to wear me some peejays at night if this keeps up.

The air's been dry, too. I don't like it one it. I want my humidity back! This dry air wrecks my sinuses and makes my skin crinkle. Only 3 or 4 more months till the rains return. *sigh*

Bummed not to see more turtles nesting on the downtown beach this year. Hardly any since November. Last year they were all over the place but getting stolen by bums and stray dogs.

I'm thinking there must be microclimates in Zihua.
Here in Madera, on the 2nd floor of the new Kaukan building, I've almost never even had to use a topsheet over the last 5+ weeks.
And when I do use an overhead fan because it's too warm or feeling stifled, I have to risk having a mild tension headache in the morning because my body just doesn't seem to like that kind of moving air.
Not to mention I don't sleep well or soundly, but that's a whole other issue and it's funny but I just don't seem able to start taking that CBD tincture I was looking forward to

We arrive from Chicago tomorrow, where the humidity indoors is currently 21%. When we deplane in November at the end of the rainy season, that blast of humidity is like walking into a sauna. We will appreciate the extra dryness.
