The Caribbean Sea
A slow-moving, nearly stationary front is across the Yucatan
Channel. Weak 1018 mb high pressure is centered south of the
front near Honduras. Low pressure is analyzed over northern
Colombia near 09N75W. Fresh to strong winds continue in the
south-central Caribbean where the pressure gradient is tighter,
with moderate to fresh trades elsewhere south of 16N, and gentle
to moderate winds north of 16N. Seas are 7-9 ft in the southern
Caribbean, 4-7 ft south of 16N east of 82W, and 2-4 ft elsewhere.
As is normal at this time of the year, shallow moisture embedded
in the trade wind flow is moving across the area, producing
isolated passing showers.
The front across the Yucatan Channel will weaken across the NW
Caribbean through Fri. Fresh to occasionally strong winds will
prevail in the southern Caribbean through Sun, with gentle to
moderate winds expected elsewhere. Looking ahead, a cold front may
move into the northwest Gulf Sat night and Sun, stall from the
Windward Passage to Belize by Sun night, then dissipate Mon. Winds
will become fresh to strong across the Caribbean on Sun as the
pressure gradient in the wake of the next cold front significantly
tightens due to building high pressure north of the area. Seas
will also build significantly across those portions of the basin
with the increasing winds.
There is still cool air coming down from the north, with a little cloud moving in from the west, resulting in surface wind from the SW. The Caribbean easterly winds are pushing against a front line just off the coast.
Looks as if today will be mainly sunny, but some cloud pushing in from the west in a few places, no rain expected.
Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last Night 22°C 72°F Yesterday 31°C 88°F Yesterday Rain 0 mm ( 0")
