Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Kam Kirkconnell and shows a couple of cruise ships in the foreground of a rain shower. Yesterday we had a rare December day with no stations reporting rain. As of 7:30 a.m. we have only had a few showers mid-island and east side for about a tenth of an inch. There is rain in the forecast, but a dry spell starting Friday.
Here is our 7:30 a.m. satellite. There is a mass of clouds and rain to the east of Guanaja, but it doesn’t seem to be moving very fast and should decrease as the morning goes on. We will keep a chance of showers through the morning, probably drier midday, but as we get into the late afternoon and early evening, rain chances go up through tonight into tomorrow morning. We may get a little break tomorrow afternoon and through tomorrow night, but Wednesday into Thursday morning we will have a good chance of rain. The good news is that starting Friday and into the following week the forecast looks quite dry.
Wind and wave forecast: We start the day with east winds 10-15 mph and seas 2-3 feet. We should stay right around there today, but winds should decrease tomorrow to 5-10 mph but turn to the north. Waves will still be 2-3 feet. The windiest waviest period will be Wednesday evening into Thursday, when we get north winds gusting up to 20 mph and seas 3-5 feet, especially north side. Winds turn back to the east 15 mph and seas 2-3 feet Friday. Early next week looks like ideal weather, with calm winds and seas.
