Good morning Bay Islands. Our Photo of the Day comes from Elizabeth Leiva on Lucy Point and shows some of the cumulus clouds that have brought us rain the past few days. We are dealing with some rain this morning and have a chance for more this evening, though as we get into next week we should start seeing less rain.

Don’t forget the five photos with the most likes in the Facebook group will compete for a free Galaxy Wave round trip to Guanaja.

Most of us have gotten some rain since midnight on top of what we got yesterday. The big winner today is West Bay which was getting a shower with over an inch of rain as I was writing this around 6:45 a.m.

Here is the 6:45 a.m. satellite. The clouds are moving west/southwest, so it looks like most of us should start clearing out for the morning, though a chance of showers persists.

I drew an arrow to the core of The Storm Behind Beryl, which never amounted to anything more than scattered storms. The GFS thinks that even that will fall apart, but if it holds together, it should give us some rain this evening. After that, as we look to next week, we will have mostly 30 percent chances of rain, mostly in the morning times and lots of sun and heat.

Wind and Galaxy Wave forecast: We have one more day of quite calm conditions with east winds 7-12 mph and seas 1-2 feet. Tomorrow and Tuesday we are back to east winds 20-25 mph and seas 3-4 feet south side.

If it’s Sunday it must be Lobster Day at Ikigai by Robby Molina. And don’t forget Ikigai is one of the few gourmet restaurants on the island to be open on Mondays as well.

Lowest tide is 3:50 p.m. Have a great Sunday!
