elbert	On Ambergris Caye this morning the ESE wind at 16 mph is making the sea too rough to go outside the reef in our boats. The sun is shining and we have an expected high of 89. Advisories: Operators of small craft should exercise caution for gusty winds and locally rough seas. White Sands Dive Shop https://whitesandsdiveshop.com/

Marty OP	From Belmopan... 8:30 BZT No rain on the Radar last night or today. . .Clear skies, will be a hot day. .. . Puffy clouds will build up later. Notice that large high, in parts, very high cloud over the Pacific . . . .That is the main area where ITCZ weather builds up.. . . . .The high level air then streams out to the NE and SE, which is where much of that cloud that you usually see streaming over Mexico comes from . . ..As the year develops, that will move more northwards, until in May / June, it will reach over Belize, triggering off the Rainy season. If you consider Mid-Summer as being when the Sun is at its nearest and hottest, then Belize has Two Mid-Summers. . .. Mid May and mid August.. .. Between May and Aug, the Sun goes north of Belize. . .. .Generally brining that ITCZ and its Rain up over Belize during that period. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITCZ
