If there is a true predictor of the season change it's these guys flying in from the North. Today's expected high is 90 and currently the temp is 78. The sea is flat calm.

From Belmopan... 08:00 BZT

Rain swept through parts of southern Belize over night, but by now it has all dried up.. . . .The NOAA maps are now working again.

I have shown earlier pictures, because they show what happened last night and indicate what is happening now. . ..The rain in Belize has now completely cleared, not just moved away, but dried up. . . .That high ITCZ swell up over PG has almost completely disappeared, presently just overcast.. . . .I believe all that rain that was showing up on the weather TV etc. was simply warm wet air being circulated by that Low pressure ridge, that stretched from where they show "L" to Cuba, over Belize, towards Florida, where it was meeting cool air, which caused all the rain.. . . .I do not see any Tropical Storm brewing there as they were talking about.

I am suspecting the morning overcast will clear to significant cloud, with some sunshine, perhaps more in the north Belize, but probably only a very small chance of any scattered rain showers.

It is most assuredly is here, but I just don't think of it there.

Scattered showers breaking out all over Belize right now.

Not really moving in from the west, mainly just developing out of the humid air as it cools down


I have added the Means Seal Level Pressure chart below. As I expected. . . There is not a sharp defined Low pressure or Depression moving over Belize as some charts are telling us.

There is a general area of low pressure, covering most of the north west Caribbean. . . As I was saying from other rain cloud charts, it looks to me as if there is a Ridge of low pressure from Belize to Cuba and the winds are meeting near Cuba, hence all that rain.


21:00

There is rain all over the places, in patchy showers, some very light, some heavy spots.
I expect this to continue through the night. . .To early to say when this patchy rain will stop.
