Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Kathy Deegan in Coco View. I made the mistake yesterday of pulling up the wrong tide chart and saying we were close to full moon. We are not. We are actually close to quarter moon, but even quarter moon can be quite a site as it rises over our calm waters. Our forecast is starting to look drier.

We have very few clouds this morning which, along with calm winds, makes us feel quite warm. Yesterday the airport got to 86 for a high and only cooled down to 75 this morning. We will see more of that today and tomorrow and maybe a degree or two warmer with low or no chance of rain. Sunday into Monday we are looking at maybe a 30 percent chance of rain. Early next week each day will have a 20 percent chance until we get to Thursday. The models are now very divided as to whether we will get a tropical wave late next week, so we will keep an eye on it.

If you are planning your cruise or other vacation to the islands, you have picked a great time. Waters are calm and rain chances going back down. Make sure to check out Jolly Roger Roatan for a guaranteed great time.

Normal low tides should return in a week, but for now tides are quite moderate. Have a great Friday!
