The eye is passing just north of Gales Point. Winds and rain have stopped for the moment in Placencia.





from a friend....

Once the eye hit the Turneffe Atoll, it jumped South a bit. I don't know how or why it does that but it just did. That means the eye of the storm is South of Belize City. It was not a direct hit, although the north eye wall is kinda scraping Belize City limits. I think Belize was spared in that the eye landed in uninhabited areas.
