Weekly Weather Outlook for Belize
September 15-22, 2014
Summary: Weekend showers dying off by early Tuesday giving way to little rainfall thereafter, until early Sunday through Monday and Tuesday next, when showers will increase over all regions of the country. Upper diffluence over the SW Caribbean is generating moderate to deep convection in that region of the western Caribbean. Elsewhere in the western Caribbean and Belize, subsiding air continues to suppress scattered shower activity. The surface analysis for 6:00 am Wednesday, Sep 17, 2014 (Figure 1) shows a weak pressure gradient over northern Central America and the NW Caribbean. Meanwhile, a tropical wave is approaching the Lesser Antilles. Another westward tracking tropical wave is located in the central, tropical Atlantic, while a disturbance will evolve from an active monsoon trof over West Africa.

From Belmopan... 09:30 BZT

There were a few, very few small rain showers around, mainly in the north.. ..But now the fog has cleared, those showers have also cleared.

I expect today to be similar to yesterday, mainly sunny with some puffy clouds, no rain. ..Perhaps a little rain tonight.

The Blue Arrow is the low level, surface wind direction, White Arrows are higher cloud movements.
