Nov. 6, 2021: Good morning Roatan! Many of us woke up to a downpour. Larry Rapp in West Bay reports 1.9 inches overnight as of 7 a.m. Coral View got 1.27 inches. We got nearly a half inch on Lucy Point and Jimmy Andrade in Camp Bay got about 1.6 inches, most of it this morning in one squall.
Today we will continue to have scattered showers as winds increase out of the north/northwest to 15-20 mph. The computers say the seas on the north side should be 5 feet by nightfall (1.6 meters). I’m a little doubtful it will be that bad, but be ready for at least 4 feet.
Tomorrow we will have scattered light showers with north winds 12-17 mph and continued 4-foot (1.3 meter) waves on the north side.
Monday and Tuesday look like nice days with partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies, much calmer north winds and seas at 2-3 feet.
Most of next week should have less rain than last week did, but the rainfall will start get heavier next weekend as another cold front approaches. It seems we are in that sort of pattern, but it is a lot better than heat and drought. Have a great weekend!
