In its passage by the municipality of Casimiro Castillo, Patricia left Hurricane damage to homes, roads and field. Crops most affected by the hurricane were the sugarcane losses recorded in about 5000 hectares and vegetables with damage to more than 200, they said in an interview, Mayor Nicholas Enrigue Crown:

"We evaluated 5457 hectares that were more or less affected"

With respect to housing 137 houses there with some degree of damage. The most affected areas were El Zapotillo, Tecomates, El Poblado and Lo Arado.

So far, communications has been restored to 100 percent, while still removing trees and branches on the roads:

"It is restored by land communities in all locations, the internet and telephone signal and signal are more consistent because we had many cuts, power was restored and almost one hundred percent and still have failures in the supply of drinking water in some locations because the rains continue even though there is no direct effects of Patricia, it is still raining and that continues to cause us problems in the water intakes. "

The mayor is confident that in the coming hours, 100 percent would restore the drinking water, as soon as Conagua supplies to homes through pipes.

Hurricane warning for the Costalegre



As hurricane Erick approaches there is a hurricane warning for all of the Costalegre. Very possible high winds and rain estimates from 3-5 inches with up to 8 inches possible in places.

The intensity forecast remains a challenge since Erick is not that far offshore of Mexico. The hurricane could intensify a little more today while it remains over warm waters without much shear. The environment will gradually become less conducive tomorrow due to Erick moving across cooler waters and possibly interacting with land. A more rapid weakening should commence after the weekend with much colder waters in the path of Erick along with drier more stable air. The NHC forecast continues the trend of the previous one...and is close to the intensity consensus.

Boca de Iguanas beach access

Boca de Iguanas beach access was cut off for a few months after hurricane Jova. The beach trail was washed out and the trailer park wasn't letting people pass thru their property. I was up in La Manzanilla the other day and decide to see what was going on at Boca beach.

They brought in a lot of new fill to create a road/trail ... even tho motor vehicles are prohibited. Easy to walk out and wide enough you don't have to worry about the resident Cocodrilo, Pancho. The beach concession is back with tables, chairs, food and beer.

The Costalegre

I have long thought that Costalegre was an agreed upon catch word for the Costa Alegre. Now I'm finding there is another long time standard, Coastecomates. This is about that area as well.


The stretch of coastline located between Costa Majahuas and Cihuatlán is the Costalegre or “happy coast.” Others describe the Costalegre as the area between Puerto Vallarta and Manzanillo. Either way it is still "the happy coast". Pacific Coast of Mexico
