Jimena update

Update as of about 11AM local time.
Hurricane Jimena is about 60nm to the west of us along the west coast of the Baja penninsula. This puts us close enough to get some pretty good winds.
The winds started to pick up around midnight when we got gusts to around 30. By early this morning we had sustained winds around 40 and gusts to 60. The winds have increased some and we are getting around 50 with our max gust at 70. We are also getting heavy rains. Jimena is down to a Cat 2 hurricane and is weakening as it gets close to and over land.
The boat is doing fine as are we and the cats. The mooring is holding fine and we are dry and safe inside. To bad we have to go outside frequently to check our lines, chafe gear, and keep watch on other boats. The rain and spray is warm so when we go outside to check things we get soaked but not cold. The ride is a little bouncy as the boat heels over when we get a hard gust, but not any worse than we have had sailing sometimes.

Sitting tight and waiting for the storm to pass over.
