Weather Update - Hurricane Polo



The bad news is Polo is now an official hurricane with sustained maximum winds of 75 MPH (120 KPH). That qualifies it as a Category I Hurricane, which runs between 74 and 95 MPH (119 to 153 KPH). The really, really good news is that track we're expecting where it will stay at sea and well below Baja? It's looking better and better.

The proof will be in the pudding by very late on Friday night or quite early Saturday morning. Around that time we'll hopefully be able to see it already swinging West and / or too far below Baja to reach Cabo without turning back on itself at an extremely rare angle. Thank Goodness it appears the poor residents of Cabo will be getting nothing but some high surf.
