From Belmopan...

There are two cloud movements over Belize. The lower one is coming back from the SSE there is also air coming down from the north, it is not obvious which is the lower one, but it looks as if it is the cloud coming up from the SSE. Only a very few small rain patches out at sea.

Today looks as it it will be largely cloudy, perhaps the odd sunshine, probably no rain or if any, only small.


Temperatures in Belmopan:
( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Mon max. 26°C 78°F Last night min. 19°C 66°F

Watching from the front yard as the eastern Caribbean wind wins the battle with the cool air bringing up the rear. Sharp demarcation.
