Our photo of the day was taken this past Saturday by Burt Bright. He was flying over the cold front that was then in Georgia and is now pushing into the Gulf of Mexico. On Burt’s picture …

… and in the satellite you can see the cool, dry air pushing clouds in front of it. We have been on the warm side of those clouds, enjoying mostly dry weather.

We have a few showers around this morning and Utila picked up about a tenth of an inch in the 6 o’clock hour. We will continue to see a few showers through the morning and partly cloudy skies and possibly an isolated shower this afternoon. Rain chances go up tonight and early tomorrow morning, then starting tomorrow afternoon through the weekend we look dry and windy. As the cold front gets close today, we will have east/northeast winds 10-15, but seas swelling from the north to 4 feet (they are 3 feet this morning). Winds turn due east tomorrow and will be strong (22-27 mph) through the weekend, giving 5-foot seas, especially on the south side. We’re still watching the possibility of a norther on Thursday or Friday of next week. Have a great Wednesday!
