Two days of solid rain; it’s not good.  We have had crap weather this year so far, that’s for sure, way more rain than normal.   In the winter, we get our weather from North America as it travels south.  We get their snow storms, but clearly by the time they reach us, it’s rain and not the white stuff.  We also get their waves created by the storms, but at the moment, big swells are being messed up by the wind and rain.

When it’s like this, we have other stuff to do but I feel very bad for the tourists.  I can imagine how frustrating and upsetting it is to travel 1000′s of miles to get to a place where you expect warm sunshine and a great tan and have to sit watching the weather dump shit-loads of rain on you for days.

The good news is that Windguru forecasts a big improvement tomorrow, so hang in there.

 
Here are a couple of good surfing shots taken by Jim a couple of weeks ago at El Encuentro – note the sun shining!
