WEEKLY WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR BELIZE
Monday-Monday, Dec. 31 2012 to Jan. 7, 2013

A high pressure system centered in the SW Atlantic just west of Bermuda is generating a moist north-easterly airflow over the western Caribbean and Belize. This high is forecast to drift southeastward over the next 48 to 72 hours, causing the airflow over the NW Caribbean to veer to the east and then to the ESE by Thursday and Friday of this week.

Another cold front will move off the Texas coast late New Year day, moving rapidly across the NW and central Gulf of Mexico. However, the cold front will stall in the SW Gulf of Mexico on Thursday. A new surge of cold arctic air will reinforce the continental high pressure system behind the cold front, which will then push the system across the eastern Gulf of Mexico and across NW Yucatan by late Saturday. The GFS model extended forecast move this cold front across Yucatan and Belize by late Sunday and early Monday of next week.

The rains will gradually die off later in the morning on New Year day, giving way to brighter weather with only isolated showers on Wednesday through Friday. Showers with possible thunderstorms will likely begin developing in the north and NW on Saturday, spreading over the rest of the country later on Saturday evening and on Sunday, as the next cold front approaches and cross the country of Belize. Cooler and gusty northerly winds will set in on Saturday morning through early Sunday.

Daily rainfall rates over the sea and coastal regions of Belize will be ranging from 0.25-0.50 of-an-inch on Monday through early Tuesday, New Year Day. Rainfall will then decrease later on Tuesday, with daily totals ranging from 0.10-0.25 of-an-inch over some areas of the hills and in the south. Rainfall will be minimal over most areas on Wednesday through Friday. Rainfall rates will increase on Saturday through Monday, with daily totals of 0.25-0.75 of-an-inch in some localities of the north and the central highlands.

On Ambergris Caye this morning its dead calm.The expected high is 82f.
Forgive me for predicting the weather but I've noticed over the years that the windy events like we've had this week seem to end in a rain like we had last night and then we have calm weather like we have right now.

Elbert, are you related to Davey Crockett? You must be with that sharp eye of yours.

Jeesh Elbert is just sitting there drinking coffee. The party comes to him, not like he has to ready the production photo op team.
He just knows the right spot to have coffee..Ana is trying her hand at the sunrise pix on her morning walk--they are on facebook every morning.

Sorry Champ---Good Job Elbert!! Keep em coming. Let me know when you fall off the wagon Elbert because your a blast. Jim

On a personal note--no-one has done more to enrich the diving experience on this island than Senor' Greer. From teaching and creating dive masters for free years ago to keeping it safe now.
A lot of tour guides bitch about him but are the first to admit that they would not be making a living and feeding there families without Elbert. My stepson included.. My hat is off to you my friend.

So how's the ego now?
Jim Hanna
