Cat 1 Hurricane "Marie" is currently about 370 miles southwest of Zihuatanejo and moving west-northwest at about 13 mph. Still no rain but clouds are scudding by and it looks like rain is inevitable.

Getting REAL dark outside even though sunset's still an hour and a half away. Looks like a big feeder band is moving over the top of us.

Just a light sprinkling of rain here in La Madera. But it sure is windy, and the clouds are very black!

Outer feeder bands and gusty winds are beginning to affect us. Still no rain.

The disturbance churning off Mexico's coast to our south developed into a Tropical Storm named "Marie" around midnight last night. It is expected to cause some heavy rains and winds as well as high surf along our coast even though it is currently tracking west-northwest at 18 knots (20.7 mph or 33.3 kph) and not expected to make landfall along the coast of Guerrero. It is expected to reach hurricane strength sometime today around 11PM PDT or 9PM local time. Folks with property fronting the open ocean should take precautions and be prepared for the possibility of high surf and winds.

BE SAFE!
