Isolated moderate rainshowers cover the area that runs from Haiti to Cuba, and from Honduras to Guatemala to SE Mexico into the SW corner of the Gulf of Mexico. Rainshowers are possible also from 15N northward from 80W westward, and elsewhere from 70W westward.

An upper level cyclonic circulation center is about 100 nm to the north of the northern coast of Puerto Rico. Isolated moderate rainshowers are within 360 nm of the center in NE semicircle.

The monsoon trough is along 08N/09N between 73W in Colombia and 84W in southern Costa Rica. Numerous strong rainshowers are in Colombia and Venezuela from 07N to 11N between 71W and 75W.

Marty OP	From Belmopan... Go outside around midday today and hold your hand out or look as some shadow of a roof or something, you will see that the shadow is almost vertically below the object making the shadow. That is because the midday sun passes right above Belize at present. This is our second summer. That is why this is our second warmest period of the year. Not much weather activity around at present, the easterly Caribbean wind has some chunky cloud and is starting to form lines of cloud as it passes over the warming land as is normal, no rain around, but with high humidity air, there can always be the odd shower. [ Remember to look at a midday shadow. ] Looks as if today will be mainly sunny, with white clouds developing, a small chance of the odd rain shower. Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last night min. 24°C 76°F Yesterday max. 32°C 89°F Ambergris Caye: https://www.wunderground.com/q/locid:BHXX0104;loctype:1 Belmopan: https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=MD1029#history Caye Caulker: https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=IBELIZED2#history
