Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from the lovely and talented Susan Andrews, and I am not biased at all. The photo is of sunset at West Bay Beach. Today’s sunset probably won’t have quite as many clouds as this one.
Rainfall since midnight has been very light and most of it came between midnight and 3 a.m. Many of us got a good rain before midnight for about half an inch. That should be the last rain for a little while.
This morning’s satellite shows a few “popcorn” clouds. I guess it isn’t impossible for someone to catch a shower before 10 a.m., but after that we should be mostly sunny and dry. Dry conditions will continue through tomorrow. Tuesday and Wednesday we get a small (30 percent) chance of rain, especially in the morning. Thursday and Friday we will be dealing with our next norther and more rain and wind.
We start the day with 3 foot seas in Roatan and 1-2 foot seas in Utila. Those seas will remain much the same today, with fairly long wave periods 5-7 seconds. Seas will get a bit calmer tomorrow, maybe 2 feet in Roatan, and then finally 1 foot by Tuesday. Fairly calm winds and seas should last until our norther comes Thursday and give us north winds 15-20 mph and seas 4-5 feet.
Just another reminder that our Roatan Weather Calendar should be printed by the first of the year. Those on the west side of the island will be able to pick yours up at the CC Print shop in Coxen Hole. It will have scenes from our photo of the day contest and average high and low temps throughout the year. Contact me to reserve yours.
Low tide is 1:30 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. Have a great Sunday!
