BajaStorms is a mobile-first storm tracking and weather information platform built specifically for Baja California Sur.
Our goal is simple: provide fast, reliable, and easy-to-understand information before, during, and after tropical storms, hurricanes, and other significant weather events affecting the region.
Why BajaStorms Exists
When tropical storms and hurricanes threaten Baja California Sur, critical information is often scattered across multiple websites, government bulletins, weather products, satellite feeds, and social media channels. While the information exists, finding it quickly and understanding what matters can be difficult, especially on a mobile device.
BajaStorms was created to bring the most important weather and storm information together in one place, with a mobile-first experience designed specifically for the way people access information during severe weather events.
During a storm, many people rely entirely on their phones. They may be away from home, traveling, experiencing power outages, or working with limited internet connectivity. BajaStorms is designed from the ground up to provide fast access to forecasts, storm tracking, satellite imagery, alerts, preparedness resources, and local information without requiring users to navigate multiple websites or search through complex technical products.
Our mission is to make critical storm information easier to find, easier to understand, and easier to access when people need it most.
How BajaStorms Works
BajaStorms is built as an automated storm-information platform designed to gather, organize, and display important weather information quickly, especially during tropical storms and hurricanes.
The site combines official forecasts, storm advisories, satellite imagery, map layers, and public weather data from trusted sources such as the National Hurricane Center, NOAA, SMN/CONAGUA, satellite imagery providers, and other meteorological data products. This information is processed into a mobile-friendly experience focused specifically on Baja California Sur.
Behind the scenes, BajaStorms uses automated data ingestion, mapping tools, weather APIs, forecast feeds, and custom regional logic to help turn scattered weather information into clear, local, easy-to-access storm pages, maps, alerts, and preparedness resources.
The goal is not to replace official agencies. The goal is to make important storm information easier to find, faster to understand, and more useful for people in Baja California Sur when weather conditions matter most.
BajaStorms is built to be fast, lightweight, mobile-first, and practical during real-world storm situations, including times when users may be relying entirely on their phones or dealing with limited connectivity.
BajaStorms does not create its own storm warning categories or replace official advisories. When watches, warnings, advisories, or emergency instructions are issued, BajaStorms reflects official information from agencies such as the National Hurricane Center, SMN/CONAGUA, Protección Civil, NOAA, and local authorities.
