Good morning Bay Islands. Today’s photo of the day is the Skittle-colored sunset at West Bay from Kelly Kosmin. The longer we go without rain, the more colorful our sunsets get as pollution and particles in the air don’t get cleaned out by rain. So lots of nice sunrises and sunsets are on the way because no significant rain is in the forecast.
Really quick forecast today because I’m hoping to get to Santa Helena today. Seas on the southside are 4-5 feet at 6 a.m. with east winds 20 mph gusting to 30 mph. We should get a bit of relief from the wind as the sun comes up and winds lower to 15-20 mph and seas to around 3 feet. Winds get strong again tonight, but tomorrow during the middle of the day looks much calmer with winds 5-10 mph and seas around 2 feet as you can see in this chart. As we go through the next week we will continue to have strong trade winds in the evenings and overnights, but somewhat calmer conditions middays. Still no rain in the forecast until perhaps March 10-11 when a small disturbance is forecast.
If you are planning your cruise excursion for the next week, don’t forget to check out the Jolly Roger Roatan. Their trips are cruise-certified as safe and 100 percent fun. They will get you back to the boat on time no sweat.
Tides continue to be mild as we enter half moon phase. Have a great weekend!
