Weather Info
DATE: May 3, 2006
As we travel closer to Cabo San Lucas the
weather continues to improve. The temperature will be in the
high 60’s to low 70’s and the wind will be under 20 kts,
with seas of less then 8 ft, combing for an altogether calm
atmosphere. There is still an expected cover marine status
clouds, but it is likely to disperse by tomorrow
afternoon/evening once we enter the warmer waters at the end
of Baja. There is, however, a group of tropical clouds that
could become a problem, but they are likely to spin off onto
the mainland and not affect us at all. Good luck to all the
celestial observers onboard.
Meteorologists: Amy Martin and Billy Dick
Cadet Meteorologists Martin and Dick are seen here using
Weather News Inc.'s Orion Pro weather routing program to
determine at what point along our track sea surface
temperatures will increase, improving the chances that our
persistent marine overcast will clear and celestial
navigation can begin.
