Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day is an amazing tale of palm tree survival on one of our many keys around the islands. It was taken by friend of Roatan Weather Duane McNab. This morning our coldest stations near Jonesville had lows around 64 degrees (17.8C). That was 2 degrees warmer thanContinue reading “February 11, 2026”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day showing the canal between Oakridge and Oakridge Key from Jackie Taylor is quite appropriate because, ladies and gentlemen, we have a new all-time record low for Roatan. Just a few bays over in Carib Bight near Juticalpa we had an all-time record low of 62.2 (16.8C).Continue reading “February 10, 2026”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Brian Gabrysh in West End. Many of us woke up to a cool shower around 5:30 a.m. that brought about a tenth of an inch of rain and lowered our temperatures to around 67 degrees (19C). We will have a partly cloudy day, butContinue reading “February 9, 2026”

Good morning Bay Islands. The photo of the day comes from Phil Sikora visiting the mainland, and probably this photo comes form Pico Bonito.

OnContinue reading “February 8, 2026”

This past month will be memorable for what happened on the 18th, when 6-8 inches fell across the island causing widespread flooding. For consistency sake we are sticking with Sandy Bay’s 15.25 inches, though Utila and the east side got around 20 inches. It was a very wet month and February is starting out theContinue reading “Rainfall for January 2026”

Good morning chilly Bay Islands. Our cold full moon last night is our photo of the day from Ken Meissner in Gibson Bight.We are challenging our all-time record low on Roatan of 63.6 degrees and Utila has broken it with a recording of 63.5. If you have a weather station on the big island thatContinue reading “February 2, 2026”

Well, it’s official. The whole island is in the 60s, many of us under a cool, steady rain. Buoys show that winds are out of the north around 30 mph and seas are 8 feet, especially north side. The good news is that it gets better from here. Rain will slacken, the wind will calmContinue reading “February 1, 2026”

Today will be partly cloudy with periods of sun and moderate north winds, increasing as the day goes along. We start the day with 15 mph windsContinue reading “January 31, 2026”
