Running away

Yesterday the situation with the circumstances created by the weather became so bad, it was decided to break up camp and move already to nearby La Ballena.


Where Leonard is living in an old motor home next to a hangar guarding the property of the American developer.



Originally it was believed that La Ballena would be a safe place to ride out the coming storm.
The hurricane called Jimena that is to arrive within one day.

But the thing gained in strength and now the whole south of Baja California is in an official state of emergency.
Winds of Jimena are near 145 mph (230 km/h) with higher gusts...
These winds extend outwards up to 30 miles (45 km) and because Jimena will pass close to the coast, extremely strong winds can be expected at La Ballena.
It is not believed that La Ballena will offer much protection for this kind of forces of nature.

When the National Hurricane Center warns:
Jimena is an extremely dangerous category four hurricane on
the Saffir-Simpson scale, why take risks and stay so close to the ocean and the hurricane?

Therefore headquarters has decided to get the hell out of here today.
To drive to La Paz, on the other side of the Baja peninsula, where the effects of Jimena will be less serious.

Fervent and loyal blog readers also will experience the effects of the hurricane Jimena.
There might be a blog blackout.
When the hurricane comes tonight, because of the strong winds, the satellite disk on the Fuso Szulc cannot operate and make connection to the internet.

Wait for the first new posting on this blog: the hurricane will be survived then.
