Belize Weather Forecast: June 16, 2021

General Situation:
Ambergris Caye: Conditions this morning by Elbert just before or after this post!
Belize NMS: Present Condition: Cloudy throughout the country. Cloudy and quite windy in San Pedro. Moist and unstable conditions persist over the area.
Advisories: There is the possibility for flooding over low lying and flood prone areas.
24-hour forecast: Cloudy with sunny breaks today and mostly cloudy tonight. A few showers, periods of rain and isolated thunderstorms will occur mostly over inland areas this afternoon and then mostly over central and northern areas tonight.
Winds: E, 5-15 kts
Sea State: Moderate
Waves: 4-6 ft.
Sea Surface Temperature (°f): 85
Outlook: For Thursday and Thursday night is for a similar trend in weather conditions.
Sargassum Forecast from June 9 to June 16: Satellite imagery continue to suggests high sargassum concentration over the Northwest Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Honduras. Therefore, the risk of sargassum affecting local beaches continues to be high. San Pedro has a high probability and a moderate impact.
Tropical Weather Outlook: A broad area of low pressure associated with disorganized showers and thunderstorms continue over the Bay of Campeche. This area has a high chance of tropical cyclone development over the Gulf of Mexico during the next 48 hours. Click for more...

The Caribbean Sea

A tropical wave is moving across the central Caribbean. An overnight scatterometer pass showed a large area of fresh to strong SE winds in the NW Caribbean where seas are 4 to 7 ft. Deep convection is occurring near this area as well as described in the Tropical Waves section above. The scatterometer pass data also indicated fresh to strong winds in the S central Caribbean. Moderate to fresh trades were noted elsewhere, except light to gentle in the SW Caribbean south of 11N. Seas are mainly in the 4 to 7 ft range across the basin, except locally to 8 ft in the S central Caribbean, and 2 to 4 ft in the SW Caribbean.

For the forecast, a ridge of high pressure north of the basin combined with lower pressure over Central America and Colombia will support pulsing fresh to strong trades over the S central Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras through the upcoming weekend. Moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere, except light to gentle south of 11N.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

In the Atlantic basin, we currently have post tropical Storm Bill which is located several hundred miles to the south-southwest of Halifax, Nova Scotia.

In the southern Gulf of Mexico, we continue to watch a broad area of low pressure that has been designated as Invest 92L. Current satellite imagery continues to show a disorganized area of showers and thunderstorms associated with 92L. This low is likely to organize further later this week into a tropical depression or storm as it moves northward across the southern Gulf of Mexico over warm waters. In the short term, 92L will continue to cause heavy, flooding rainfall across parts of Central America and southern Mexico through Thursday night. Invest 92L will then move northward and approach the central Gulf Coast by this weekend. Regardless of any tropical development, 92L will bring tropical moisture and the threat for heavy, flooding rainfall to parts of the Gulf Coast and Southeast by this weekend into early next week. Due to strong wind shear, the bulk of the heavy rainfall will be displaced well to the northeast of the actual low-level center of the potential tropical system.

Marty OP	Extensive low pressure circulation with cyclonic potential in the Gulf of Mexico continues to generate cloudy and rainfall in the area. Tropical depression could form within the Gulf of Mexico, soon to be formed Claudette. The model sets also see cyclone activity within the Caribbean for the next few days. A new tropical wave is coming from the Caribbean.

Marty OP	Cloud, cloud everywhere, yet despite this, there is some sunlight coming through in some places and very little rain in any part of Belize. The main cloud area moving slowly in from the west, some moving up from the suth, which took rain over Belize and up into the Yucatan over night. Looks as if today will be mainly cloudy, little or no rain this morning, but could develop anywhere this afternoon. Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last Night 24°C 75°F Yesterday max. 32°C 90°F Yesterday Rain 22 mm ( 0.9")

Marty OP	Cloud thinning a bit, still no significant rain over Belize. Happy World Sea Turtle Day!! Belize has 3 types of Sea Turtles; the Green Sea Turtle, Hawksbill and Loggerhead. Nesting season has begun and this year’s first nest on #ambergriscaye was discovered on May 14th by the Hol Chan Marine Reserve. Nesting season runs from May to November. Let’s continue to protect these beautiful creatures. Photo by Marlena Gomez
