Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Larissa Johnson in Gibson Bight. I love the sun’s reflection off the calm waters. Waters are not this calm today, but they definitely are calmer on the north side than on the south side where we have 25 mph southeast winds and seas 4-5 feet.
Our haze is not just about the dust. There are high clouds moving from west to east. Lower down in the atmosphere we have some popcorn clouds scattered about. It wouldn’t be impossible for someone to see a sprinkle somewhere this morning, but I don’t see any measured rain at any weather station on our islands.
I’ve been noticing that the GFS is trying to make a tropical storm in the Pacific south of Honduras and El Salvador. The Canadian model is also picking up on this. Again, no threat to us because whatever it is is moving west.
The bad news from the Saharan dust is that it looks like it will keep coming, keeping our skies hazy. In fact, it looks like it might get a little worse middle of next week.
As a preview of my upcoming video on our trip to Guanaja, I thought I’d post this video of the amazing Villa Caterina house where we stayed thanks to our amazing supporter Lisa Garcia and her husband Oscar. The house is available for rent and is also for sale. It’s right next to the Guanaja Beach Hotel in El Bight so there’s lots of great amenities nearby.
Lowest tide is 5 p.m. under a new moon. Have a great Friday!
