On Ambergris Caye this morning we have a Northerner blowing at 22 mph and a rough sea state with an advisory: A Small Craft Caution is in effect for gusty winds and rough seas. It's sunny and the sky is clear.
The cold air pushed right over Belize yesterday and has now brought clear skies, yet some Caribbean air has slid over the top and is streaming up over the Gulf from the Yucatan. But at the same time the cold air sis still coming down over the Caribbean, causing a lot of cloud, but now out at sea and causing some rain way out at sea
Looks as if today will be mainly sunny with cool air and no rain expected.
Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler ) Last Night 20°C 67°F Yesterday max. 23°C 74°F Yesterday Rain 6.3mm ( 0.3") Over Night Rain 0mm ( 0" )
