The Caribbean Sea
There are two tropical waves over the Caribbean Sea. Fresh trade winds over the southwest and south-central Caribbean
will pulse to strong speeds at night through Mon. Moderate to
fresh winds in the Windward Passage and the Gulf of Honduras will
diminish tonight. A tropical wave, currently near 45W, will bring
moderate to fresh winds and building seas to the tropical waters E
of the Lesser Antilles and to the E Caribbean Tue through Sat.
Rainshowers are expected over this region of the basin as the wave
progresses westward. Otherwise, gentle to moderate trade winds
elsewhere will change little through the forecast period.
The Weather Prediction Center is issuing advisories on Post-Tropical Cyclone Delta, centered inland over the southeastern United States.
The rest of the Atlantic basin remains relatively quiet, and additional tropical development is unlikely over the next 3-5 days. There is one tropical wave currently along 40 west near 10 north, but further development of this wave appears unlikely due to strong winds aloft.
A westward-moving tropical wave continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the central tropical Atlantic. Slight development of this system is possible during the next two or three days while the system moves generally westward near 15 mph. Upper-level winds are forecast to become unfavorable for further development by the middle of the week. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

The easterly Caribbean winds are back to normal. The high level winds at this moment are also from the east and causing some clashing in the Stann Creak district and up in the Corozal area. They may be giving some rain at present, there could be similar rain in other parts later today.
Looks like today is mainly a mixture of cloud and sunshine, with a significant chance of some rain.
Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last night min. 25°C 78°F Yesterday max. 33°C 91°F Yesterday Rain 0 mm ( 0")
Present Condition: Mostly clear. Relatively moist and unstable conditions prevails.
24hr Forecast: Sunny with cloudy spells this afternoon and tomorrow morning and cloudy at times tonight. A few showers and isolated thunderstorms will develop over inland areas this afternoon, while the rest tof the country sees isolated activity.
Outlook: Isolated showers and thunderstorms will affect the country Monday afternoon, but then activity will increase over southern districts Monday night and most areas Tuesday morning.
