Hello Manzanillo blogger, I have been following your blog for a while now and I like your posts. I work with a new MLS site for Mexico http://www.2casarealty.com.

I was wondering if you have an RSS feed of your posts? We would be interested in carrying your feed on sections of our site.

I must say hello to Howard, I used to live next door to him in Melaque, but am back in Canada for now.

Thanks

Strange year for summer weather. This is summer #6 for us and each one has been different; this one the least rain but still high humidity.

Once June rolls around I change my homepage to this:

http://hurricane.accuweather.com/hurricane/basin.asp?partner=accuweather&traveler=0&basin=epacific

and also daily check this:

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/index.shtml?epac

Between the two, and the regular AccuWeather.com site for Manzanillo, I get a general idea of what is coming.

This year the satellite images show the weather systems forming in the Bay near to Acapulco but then going almost due West out into the Eastern Pacific. Usually, in previous years, they have traveled up the coast giving us rain every three days or so. Not so this year. It is a strange wind and ocean current year, especially for an El Niño year.

The humidity in Manzanillo has been running at about 75 to 80%, but we have had very little rain this month (July). I would be happy if it rained more often!

Oh, to say it’s humid here is like saying it’s wet in the rain forest… Thankfully it’s only for a few months out of the year.

In connection (maybe) with rain, and our plans to hopefully live full-time in Mexico soon, I’ve been keeping track of humidity, as well as maximum and minimum daily temperatures for Zihuatanejo and Mazatlan two or three times each month since May/08, and, since Feb/09, I’ve added Colima (city), Manzanillo, Guadalajara, Uruapan, Oaxaca (city) and San Carlos to the list.
My figures show Colima and Manzanillo consistantly with the highest humidity readings of all those locations, regardless of which month.
I realize that high humidity on or near the coast is unavoidable and the price one pays if that’s where one wants to live, but it is interesting that it seems to be so high in those two spots.

YEAH! You are back. And I am so glad to here that your not dead. (for more reasons then most people will ever know) Don’t get me wrong, I really like happy faces, but seeing the beautiful rain was a refreshing sight.

Did you know that at the ‘KIOSKO’ nearest the Saint John’s school you can receive free a little key chain with own code for buying TelCell cards for your cellular phone. So that way if you forget your phone number, it is no problem. Just have them scan your key chain!!
