#397104 - 01/12/11 09:47 AM Snow in CC?
MikeD Online   content
I am from Massachusetts and we are expecting 16 inches of snow today. There is snow in 49 of the 50 United States! So much for global warming. I cannot wait to get to CC, I hope it doesn't snow!

Was this thread really necessary? It's 80 degrees in Caye Caulker in the dead of winter.

OUCH! How about a little compassion. The world is freezing and this person is coming to visit you. Lighten up.

Please excuse my twisted sense of humor. I am aware of the weather in CC.

There are people across the US stranded in airports, bus stations and train stations because of the snow and its crippling effect on transportation. Some of them may be trying to get to Belize. I truly hope is doesn't happen to me.

Maybe we can all have a good laugh and throw down a panty ripper when I get there? :-)

The airport in Caye Caulker is temporarily closed due to snow and ice on the runway!

More than likely due to a golf cart on the run way. wink That happened to us on one flight over there. The pilot had to taxi down the runway and tell them to get out of the way. crazy

Back up here though Logan is shut down. I hope they get that straightened out by Saturday for my flight down.

Years ago here was an incident in San Pedro where Tropic had to clear the runway of mating dogs.

I was working on one of the homes on the back shore just south of the western end of the CC airstrip. We would just stop and check if there were any planes due and never failed to get permission to ride our bikes down the runway to work.
Coming back however, there was no way to check, the little terminal was at the east end. To make matters worse, the planes would of course come eastward, into the prevailing wind to land, you could not hear them until it was too late. Got buzzed on more than one occasion before that job was over, dirty looks from some of the more surly pilots on the way past the terminal.
Still gotta love the informality and general cooperation of people in little unsophisticated countries! The Dept. of Homeland Security, the TSA, blah blah would have you in court in the good old land of the free?!!!

I got buzzed on the airstrip once also, and had to fling my bike down and crouch while the plane passed over me since I was 1/2 way down the airstrip with nowhere else to go but into the swamp with the gators. I file that incident under "Don't Do that Again"

As long as they run the snow plough over it regularly you would hardly notice.

Ok, I will take you. The girls on CC had better be warned that Babsy will be the best looking babe on the island!
