**Baja California Weather Alert: Strong Winds, Rough Seas, and Cooler Conditions Ahead**
Baja California is set to experience challenging weather as two cold fronts approach from the northwest and north. According to the latest update from CONAGUA, these fronts are merging with the subtropical jet stream, resulting in strong winds, tumultuous seas, and scattered showers throughout the region.
Residents should prepare for wind speeds between 50 and 70 km/h across both Baja California and Baja California Sur, which may create dust clouds and limit visibility on roads and in the air. On the west coast, waves are expected to reach heights of 1 to 3 meters, posing a threat to smaller vessels.
Here’s what to expect in key locations:
