Torrential rain Sun-Mon

I wonder if Penasco will get any rain? From the looks of the map possibly quite a bit between Sunday and Monday. Flooding Rain From Tropical Storm to Reach Phoenix, Las Vegas

From the look of that map we should be right in the flow !! Good time to see if the roof leaks !!

I hope it puts on a nice lightning show, if storm chances stay as predicted, I will be down Sat.-Mon. to see it in person. I will even enjoy the heat and humidity. I might also see what a cold Pacifico tastes again like since it has been a while. LOL

Pacifico is SO yesterday! Go with Indio!! Hahahahaha!! I laugh, but we did exactly that last trip. WalMart (Bodega Aurrea) has it there cheap, 12 pack non-return bottles.

I still loves me some Pacifico, though.

Donno about the rating of your beer Stuart! Best and Worst Mexican Beers - The Cerveza Report

I love Indio on tap especially at Bryan's Sports Bar, I also love DosXX Amber. But a Really Cold Pacifico with a squeeze of lime is tough to beat. I guess I still sort of live in the yesterday but sure had a great time at all those yesterday parties (1985-2005) in Penasco. But now I just live for today and kick back.

You say "toe-mate-o," I say "toe-motto." Some people's tastes are all in their mouths... or not. Beer snobs are as bad as wine snobs!! We had a keg of Modelo Especial this past weekend for a friend's 50th birthday. 2nd kegger of Modelo we've had recently. Good stuff!

I'd correct this snob's grammar and spelling if I could - "designed to appear to people" errrr, ahhhh I think he means "appeal" to people. Poor peasants of Indian blood? WTF? S-N-O-B!!!!!!!

"Indio—A beer designed to appear to people who can barely afford beer, the poor peasants who are probably of “Indio” blood themselves. Made with cheaper ingredients and it shows."

One of the reasons I like Indio is that it's a bit lighter and has less alcohol. It also rated considerably higher than Pacifico in this poll: Indio #22, Pacifico #47 out of 50.

Like I said... it's all good when you're thirsty! :puff:

Thread Hijackers !!!!!!

Back on track with the torrential rain, the storm chances look really good now, with Sat. afternoon at 40% chance of rain, Sat. night 90% with .4 inches, Sun. 70%, Sun. night 80% with 1.3 inches of rain. Even Monday has a 50% chance of rain. Best part is it will be probably 10-15 degrees cooler, Yeahhhhh! But we all know about predictions, someones best guess. Now just have to pick my exit time on Monday to go back to Phx without waiting on washes running. And on what Stuart said, totally agree most beer is good, some are better depending on your preference.

Beer hater!! There something about the sound of running water, rain and drinking beer that are related. <flush>

Chance of rain tomorrow in Penasco 80%- seems like a good chance sometime tomorrow or tomorrow night it'll rain!

Noonish here in Penasco. Sky above is clear, light breezes. Big cumulus buildup to the east appears to be heading north.

Love it Roberto- you're our real time weatherman. Appreciate any update any time- thanks!

This is a disaster here in Bowie.....time to start harvesting Pistachio crop and the rain will cause many to hit the ground..good for bird food buyers only at that point.....bummer

So, has Penasco been hit already? If not, what are the prospects for later today/night or tomorrow....and, how bad? Just another property trying to protect his or hers. Thanks for any help in the effort!

Looks like Sonoyta is getting hit:

Sorry to hear about Bowie- we need more rain in Tucson

areas of Phoenix got slammed at 2:30 this morning. What a light show too.

4:15 today at Mary's. windy. Big surf. No rain. Kind of humid, but not too bad in the shade. Having a great time.

I was watching the big thunderhead to the east and figured Sonoyta was going to get hit by it, thanks for the link. Just windy and dusty and 92 degrees currently.

Woke up to thunder at 4:00 a.m. this morning in Laveen. We didn't get any rain, though.

Tonights the night PP will be hit hard.
Then it will head north and hit western Phoenix.
Get the umbrellas out and batten down the hatches.
Good luck.

Any reports from last night and today? Still nothing but cloudy skies here in Laveen.

Not a drop here in Laveen and I was going to cancel my flood irrigation in fear that I might get to much water with the rain Glade I didn't.

Not even a drop yet. Pic taken moments ago. Ocean is much calmer than yesterday...maybe the calm before the storm? 2 of the Mexican Navy boats have been floating a ways offshore, looks like they are keeping any boats from going offshore other than the banana boat and jet ski guys that are close to the beach.

We ahd a light rain in the night, enough to keep the dust down. Cloud cover today with light breezes.
