Try this for weather: wwghcc.mfsc.nasa.gov/GOES/goeseastconusir.html--- It'll give you the storm patterns and you'll see why the weather from belize city is not the island's weather.

In my experience, all hotels, most restaurants and at least the larger shops all take credit cards. No just in San Pedro but all over Belize. The majority no longer tack on a surcharge, but some do. You do usually end up with a transaction fee from your credit card issuer, maybe a percent or two of the charge, sometimes more.
Most places, even tour guides, grocery stores, etc. accept traveller's checks, though you usually need your passport.
Don't forget that Belize Bank's ATMs around Belize (including the one on Front Street in San Pedro) now accept foreign ATM cards. On a recent trip around Belize all the ones I tried worked fine, though occasionally they are down or "out of money" (they dispense Belize dollars only).
With some U.S. cash, maybe some TCs, an ATM card and a couple of credit cards you can spend your way into massive debt just about anywhere in Belize.
