Heads up to everyone living on Mexico's west coast and in Baja. The weather reports sound pretty serious, since Jimena is now a category 4 hurricane!!

Here's the link to one such report:

I think this is the best online site to monitor the storm.

We are going to get hit hard here on the peninsula. I am far enough north that the wind speeds will have come down from hurricane strength however I am quite concerned about friends on the southern end of Baja.
