The Caribbean Sea

High pressure ridging north of the area is maintaining generally moderate to fresh easterly flow across the basin. Strong winds are noted near Colombia and in the Gulf of Honduras. The observed wave height state reveals ranges of 4-7 ft, except for lower wave heights of 3-4 ft over the section of the sea north of 18N between 76W-85W. Higher wave heights of 6-8 ft are between 64W- 72W.

Patches of low-level moisture moving westward with the trade wind are noted over the eastern part of the sea and over the northern part of the central section of the sea. Isolated to scattered showers are possible with these moisture patches.

As for the forecast, high pressure north of the area will continue to support fresh to strong trade winds in the south- central Caribbean through Fri night. Fresh to locally strong winds will end in the Gulf of Honduras by Sat morning. A cold front is expected to move across the Yucatan Channel into the NW Caribbean Sat evening, bringing fresh to strong winds and building wave heights to the area. Otherwise, fresh to locally strong trades and northeast to east swell will continue to impact the waters east of the Lesser Antilles into early next week.

The easterly Caribbean winds continue to be deflected up north. White clouds already building along coastal regions, no rain for several days. Our weather is changing, we will probably not be getting any more cold fronts and the day temperature now pushing up in to the 90's

Looks as if today will be very similar to yesterday, mainly sunny and with some white clouds, no rain expected. No rain on the Radar.

Temperatures in Belmopan : ( Coast usually cooler, hills even cooler )
Last Night 24 °C 75 °F Yesterday max. 32 °C 90 °F Yesterday Rain 0 mm ( 0 ") Over Night Rain 0 mm ( 0 " )

Our weather is moving from the winter weather into the Summer weather. March often has some of the highest temperatures of the year. The red line is the average monthly maximum day time temperatures, that I have measured over about 20 years, and so also the blue, minimum night time temperatures.

But these are only averages, the actual Day time temperature often go higher, up to the Orange line, typically peaking in April, but there have been some occasional extreme hot days, shown here by the upper dotted orange line, as you see, off the graph, above 105°F in mid to late March. Which is where we are going right now.

The dry season is mid March to mid May. But our wet and dry seasons a highly variable.
