Our first Pacific Hurricane of the 2011 season quickly appeared and dissappeared along the Pacific coast without any impact to the Mexico. Hurrican Adrian began last weekend and strengthened to a Category 4 and this weekend it is already gone. I originally thought it just might be the trigger to get the rainy season started this year, but it seems that it had no impact, however, last evening we a just a little lightening and thunder with a soft steady rain for a while. Thank God!
It has just been so very hot and humid these last few weeks, and I hope that was the beginning of the rainy season. The hills and jungles will quickly come alive again and change all of this dust and brown to the beauty of the summer season in Puerto Vallarta. I hope so!
Back to Hurricanes and you have to quickly realize that the geographical configuration of the Bay of Banderas that we live in, does not really allow Hurricanes to come ashore. The bay is about 40 miles deep to the Malecon and having a Hurricane make a right turn towards to the shore is a rare phenomenon, as only one Hurricane Kenna did so about 8 years ago.
So no worries and plan your vacation any time of year, but be prepared for the summer rains that usually only come in the evening hours and your sunny beach day will not be marred.
