I'm afraid to even ask......

Phant,
It is a *******ization of the Tehuano Winds. Some people used to make
fun of Skipper's wild stories about getting caught in the Tehuano Winds
in the Sea of Cortes. Tehuano Winds are caused by a high pressure
system rushing through the valleys on the Baja Peninsula towards a low
pressure system off the Pacific coast. If I am not mistaken, the high
winds are really only a problem in the Pacific and are not a problem in
the Sea of Cortes.
