There is a Hurricane 2 ( almost a 3 ) approaching Mazatlan
Sadly Hurricane Orlene, Category I, has just recently become a Category 2 with winds possibly bringing it closer to a Category 3 before it makes landfall. Landfall is projected to be Monday afternoon or later in the evening.
One of the first projections showed a direct hit on Mazatlan. Plans are underway as to which areas need to evacuated and shelters are being set up. Even the Isla has a shelter set up.
A few hours later Orlene’s path moved to the south which is terrible for those communities but much better for the Isla and Mazatlan itself.
About 6:15PM Mazatlan time Orlene officially became a Category 2. Based on the winds it may or may not become a Category 3.
RV2 has been sand bagged. I was unable to confirm if RV1, where we stay, has been sandbagged.
This is what is approaching the west coast of Mexico.
Sunset this evening on the Isla.
Better days on the Isla which we hope we will be able to return to it.

Please send a few prayers if you can. This storm has the potential to affect so very many folks. In this article which was issued at 6PM EDT is says that Orlene will be making landfall in the region of Mazatlan. It appears that the landfall projection has changed back to Mazatlan.

So much mayhem going on in our world, Friends in LDM are taking precautions for this as well. Hopefully your piece of paradise will weather the storm. Oh by the way I love you in your hat’s!
Concerned for the Isla and Mazatlan and all the coast of Mexico in that area. Meanwhile we are still feeling the effects of Ian – rain yesterday and today. Hoping for sun tomorrow but not sure that will happen.
Hi Contessa. yes, climate changes can be terrifying, but hopefully Dios mediante your piece of paradise will untouched. How many more days to hit South do you amigos have? Hoping a good trip & a calm weather during the process of reaching The Isla.
My regards: Lucy.
