Yeah, amazing, right? I was very surprised a while back to learn that there are snow covered (or perhaps, snow dusted) mountains way further south than that even, near Mexico City.

Amazing! Mexico is fascinating!

In April or May of 1995 I was in Tecate and it was crazy weather, very cold (compared to what we expected) and we got snowed on good.

World weather on my iPAD is really opening my eyes.

I was down there, just got back. I was in Sonora by Soyopa. It was Bad a$$ cold, no snow there but penetrating rain.

The really sad thing is that there are many, many very poor people down there (essentially in the colonias of Tijuana) whose homes are little more than cardboard clad hovels with no heat. It's uncomfortably hot and dusty in the summer. They must be very miserable when the weather turns that cold.
