Jan. 19, 2023: Good morning, Roatan! Yesterday we mentioned that the east side was far windier than the west side and Utila, but last night Utila got up to 17 mph winds and the West Side about 20 mph. This morning we’re dealing with gusty winds and 4 foot seas, though only around 2 feet around Utila. We have some clouds to our east, but those will only bring us mostly sunny skies and no real chance of rain. Winds will calm today around 15 mph from the east and seas to 2-3 feet before rising again tonight to 20-25 mph and 4 feet. Today and tomorrow we will we a little more humid which will make it feel hot, though some drier air is on the way for the weekend which should make it feel a little cooler (though not as cool as it did Monday). No rain until the end of next week, and even then it doesn’t look like a huge chance of rain. Long-range forecasts give us good rain at the end of the month and the first of February. We’ll keep an eye on it. Have a great Thursday!
