| | San Felipe Photo & Video Gallery We are now entering the windy season for this region of Baja. From November through March we experience the north winds that result from high pressure that builds over the Four Corners region of the United States. These Santa Ana winds bring the warm and summer-like conditions to Southern California. For us it means very dry, brisk, conditions with drifting sand on the highways and the very fine dust (polvo) in every nook and cranny of the house. However, it is a great time for kitesurfing and if you rent a beachfront hotel or condo south of the harbor, you can walk out of your room and in 50 meters be on your kitesurfer catching a great ride. For more data on the daily winds, gusts and directions, see our weather page graphs. Also look for the link on the left hand side of that page for information on the wind shadow, boat launching, scuba etc. | ||||||||||||||
