The Caribbean Sea

Expect NE gale-force winds, and sea heights ranging from 9 feet to 11 feet, from 10N to 12N between 74W and 76W, off the coast of Colombia. These conditions will last for the next 12 hours or so. The wind speeds will slow down, to less than gale-force, this morning, on Monday morning. Gale-force wind conditions will start again on Monday night, and last for another 12 hours or so.

A cold front passes through 21N70W in the Atlantic Ocean, across northern sections of Haiti, to eastern Jamaica, to eastern sections of Honduras, along the border with Nicaragua. Precipitation: rainshowers are possible to the northwest of the line that runs from the coast of Costa Rica along 80W to SW Haiti.

Rainshowers are possible, also, from 70W eastward, in areas of broken low level clouds, in trade wind flow.

The current cold front will weaken, from tonight through Monday. The front will dissipate into Tuesday. High pressure building to the north of the area, in the wake of the front, will support strong trade winds across the south central Caribbean Sea through the period. The wind speeds will be pulsing to gale-force off the coast of Colombia at night, beginning tonight and continuing through the middle of the week. It is possible that another cold front may approach the Yucatan Channel by the end of the week.

OP Marty	Last night, the cold air coming down, had moved more to the east and coming in from the NE. Now the easterly Caribbean winds have resumed. There is also some warmer air and cloud moving up from the south off Honduras. A large area of cloud moving in right now, just a few traces of rain seen earlier. Looks like today started off sunny for central and north Belize, but cloud moving in but should thin during the day, little or no rain expected. Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last night min. 16°C 61°F Yesterday max. 27°C 80°F Yesterday Rain 0 mm ( 0.0" )
