On Ambergris Caye this morning the island is still under the influence of the Northern breeze and the Barrier Reef is flat calm. The photograph this morning is typical of the thundershowers we've been experiencing at night lately. They seem to move off early in the day and give us some blue sky. Our expected high is 88 f

From Belmopan...

That serious ITCZ swell-up near Panama collapsed yesterday, but a new area has developed. Looks as if this is the time of the year, when there are much ITCZ activity near Panama. It is possible and has happened before, that if the winds are in certain directions, then storms can rapidly develop in that area, so we must keep watching. That cold air that came down over the Gulf is effecting our weather, and conflicting with the warmer air from the south, there are several swell-ups just off the Belize coast, so there is rain, presently mainly out at sea.

Today started of sunny, but is now getting heavy overcast, most of the rain may stay out at sea.

Temperatures in Belmopan :
( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Tue max. 30°C 86°F Last night min. 26°C 77°F
