The Caribbean Sea

15-25 kt trade winds prevail over much of the Caribbean Sea, with winds to 30 kt and seas 10-11 ft just off the coast of Colombia. Strong SE winds prevail across the Gulf of Honduras. Atmospheric conditions remain very stable across much of the basin with only isolated thunderstorms along the Panamanian coastal waters, while widely scattered showers are moving across the NE Caribbean.

High pressure extending from the central Atlantic to the NW Bahamas will maintain fresh to strong trade winds over the south- central Caribbean through Tue before weakening. Strong east to southeast winds over the Gulf of Honduras will pulse again Sunday night before diminishing early this week. Smoke from agricultural fires in Central America will likely reduce visibility over the Gulf of Honduras for the next several days.

Marty OP	There is certainly a change to the weather, whether we feel it or not. There has been something, probably low level air moving down, over the Gulf from the States, which has caused the high level from the west, to cause many flare-ups over the Yucatan, probably rain in some areas, its remnant cloud is all over the area and Belize this morning. the Honduras smoke is still over the sea and Belize, the Caribbean winds are not making it to Belize yet. Looks as if it will still be a hot smoggy day, but the high level cloud might hold the temperatures a little lower. Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last night min. 25°C 78°F Yesterday max. 38°C 101°F Yesterday Rain 0.0 mm ( 0" )

Marty OP	You can't see that sort of front coming in except from watching the dynamic moving pictures as I do. Not clear yet, what effect it will have, all sorts of differences happening right now, I would like to think some rain, but presently no such indication. Present Condition: Mostly sunny. 24hr Forecast: Sunny with cloudy spells and hazy skies this afternoon and tomorrow morning and partly cloudy tonight. No rainfall is expected. As you can see, temperatures have been through the roof this year. I have seen over 100°F before, on a few years, but usually just once in such a year, here we have 3 in short succession. The red dotted line is the normal. I believe the Smoke all over the Yucatan, Guatamala, Honduras are the main culprit for this extreme hot weather. . . ( 105°F in 2003 was caused by fires and smoke from Guatamala and westerly winds. ) We really need to try to get the Honduranians and Guatamalans to stop so much fires. . . The ground is now very dry as you can see in my Rain graph, the light blue has been at zero for 3 weeks, causing the grass to go brown, even the light green line, deep water is almost at zero, so bushes and trees starting to be effected, many young Mangoes just falling of the trees. Certainly reduced fires in the Yucatan today, but not Honduras. Goodness it’s pretty out! Grateful dog walk views. Photo by San Pedro Scoop

Marty OP	The smoke is thinning over north Belize and there is rain over the southern mountains.
