**Baja California Weather Alert: Prepare for Strong Winds, Rough Seas, and Cooler Temperatures**
As the week begins, Baja California is set to experience challenging weather conditions based on the latest updates from CONAGUA. Two cold fronts are moving in from the northwest and north, combining with the subtropical jet stream to bring strong winds, high seas, and scattered rainfall across the area.
Residents of both Baja California and Baja California Sur should prepare for wind gusts ranging from 50 to 70 km/h, creating dust clouds that could disrupt visibility both on the roads and in the skies. Coastal areas can expect waves between 1 and 3 meters, which pose a risk to smaller sea vessels.
