This rainy season has been A LOT better than last year. I remember weeks would go by with ONLY rain, no sunshine. Everything is wet, EVERYTHING.

This year hasn't been that bad. There were weeks where it would rain every day in the afternoon for a couple of hours then it was over. Then there were times it would rain around 12pm everyday for a little while then stop. But for the most part it was still sunny throughout the morning and early afternoon. The only downside to rainy season was the usual chilly weather and dampness. Although it wasn't always raining, your clothes and towels still never fully dried. Socks and shoes took days or a week to dry. And the air was always damp.

Just when I thought we had reached the end of rainy season, we get this ....

Tropics Watch: Daily Map Analysis

ATLANTIC BASIN

Models continue to forecast a broad area of surface low pressure to form by this weekend over the northwestern Caribbean, northern Central America, Yucatan Peninsula, and/or extreme southwestern Gulf of Mexico, so that occurrence appears likely.

This is a climatologically favored area for tropical cyclone formation in October.

It is still too soon, however, to determine if or when this might lead to a tropical depression or whether it might ever affect the U.S.

EASTERN PACIFIC ***THIS IS HITTING US NOW***

* Hurricane Jova

- Centered inland over west-central Mexico, after making landfall early this morning as a Category 2 hurricane between Manzanillo and Cabo Corrientes

- Will slowly head northward and weaken relatively quickly over the mountainous terrain, and expected to dissipate within a day or two, although some of its remnants could emerge back offshore near the Puerto Vallarta area

- Due to its slow motion and mountainous terrain, Jova could produce very large rainfall totals, and there is an extreme threat of flash floods and mudslides extending well inland over portions of west-central Mexico for the next few days

* Tropical Storm Irwin

- Very low-end tropical storm and still well offshore, several hundred miles southwest of the Pacific coast of central Mexico

- Will move generally to the east in the direction of Mexico the next several days

- Only a very slight chance of making landfall somewhere on the Pacific coast of central Mexico by this weekend

- Not expected to strengthen or have significant impacts in Mexico, and could dissipate in less than five days

* Tropical Depression Twelve-E **THIS IS MOVING INTO RIGHT WHERE WE ARE**

- Just offshore the Pacific side of southeastern Mexico over the Gulf of Tehuantepec

- Will move to the north or northeast and could become a tropical storm before making landfall on the Pacific side of southeastern Mexico today or tonight

- Potential for locally heavy rains and flash flooding in southeastern Mexico and Guatemala the next couple of days

- Eventual remnants could become part of broad area of low pressure over the northwestern Caribbean and Yucatan into the upcoming weekend

GREAT. Maybe after this weekend, rainy season will be over ... cross your fingers.
Bc it is freazing.
