Belize Weather Forecast: September 6, 2021


General Situation:
Ambergris Caye: Conditions this morning by Elbert just before or after this post!
Belize NMS: Present Condition: Partly cloudy this morning, mostly clear in San Pedro. A relatively moist airflow prevailing.
Advisories: A flood warning remains in effect for low-lying and flood prone areas.
24-hour forecast: Sunny skies today with a few cloudy spells. Showers or thunderstorms will be generally isolated during the day time. Tonight skies will be partly cloudy to cloudy along with afew showers or thunderstorms developing mostly over southern coastal areas.
Winds: E, 5-15 kts
Sea State: Slight
Waves: 1-3 ft
Sea Surface Temperature (°f): 86
Outlook: For Tuesday and Tuesday night is for partly cloudy to cloudy skies with a few showers or thunderstorms developing mainly over the south.
Sargassum Forecast from August 31 to September 8: Satellite imagery show a few sargassum mats offshore and therefore there continues to be medium chance of new mats landing on beaches across the country during the next few days. San Pedro has a medium probability and a moderate impact.
Tropical Weather Outlook: At 9:00pm last night Hurricane Larry was located near Lat 21.0N and Long 51.4W or about 785 miles ENE of the Northern Leeward Islands, Larry was moving to the NW at 12mph with maximum sustained winds of 125mph. Elsewhere, in the North Atlantic, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, tropical cyclone formation is not expected during the next 48 hours. Click for more of the tropical weather outlook...

Marine Conditions:

The Caribbean Sea

There are two tropical waves in the Atlantic, and one in the Caribbean.

Scattered moderate convection is noted over eastern Cuba and adjacent waters, while activity previously over the northwest Caribbean has diminished early this morning. Generally dry air and high pressure dominate the rest of the basin, with moderate to fresh trades ongoing. Seas are generally 3 to 5 ft, except 5 to 7 ft offshore Colombia. Swell from distance hurricane Larry is beginning to enter Atlantic passages off the Leeward Islands, where seas of 5 to 7 ft are occurring.

For the forecast, major Hurricane Larry will remain well to the northeast of the Leeward Islands today, then move farther north of the area through mid week. Associated rough seas east of Leeward Islands and Atlantic entrances will persist into mid week. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate trade winds will persist, pulsing to fresh winds off Colombia mainly at night.

There is a similar high level large area of swellups over most of Mexico, and that is then spilling off over our way from the NW, which is giving us a lot of cloud and did cause some earlier rain in a few areas, but that has now eased up.

Looks like much of today will be cloudy, occasionally heavy, presently no rain, but there could be the odd rain showers this evening.

Today we will have more rain in the Peninsula due to the arrival of tropical wave no. 30 and its interaction with low pressure and vortex in height.
