The good news is that the storm is trending in the right direction for us — northward. We are now on the very southern edge of the cone of uncertainty. It is not impossible for it to come our way, but chances are good it passes north of us, gives us some moderate westerly winds on ThursdayContinue reading “June 30, 2024 evening update for Hurricane Beryl and Potential Storm Chris”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of they day comes from Ignacio Zapata, taken from a window at Arihini Tower on West Bay Road. It shows a classic cumulus cloud along with the downpour underneath.

Good morning Bay Islands. Phil Sikora got this rainbow yesterday over Carib Bight and we had the better chance of seeing one on the east side of the island, with most of us getting about 2/3 of an inch yesterday. West Bay and West End practically missed out with .10 of an inch while SandyContinue reading “June 28, 2024”

Good morning Bay Islands. This morning’s beautiful shot comes from Elena Gonzalez in Brick Bay. I love the ripples in our clear waters. We’re actually getting a shower in West Bay this morning.

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Phil Sikora and offers a view of cumulus clouds through the power lines of Los Fuertes. We enjoyed a day of between a tenth and a quarter of an inch of rain on Roatan, less on Guanaja and more on Utila. Unfortunately our rainContinue reading “June 21, 2024”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Amy Knadler and shows folks looking longingly at storm clouds in Utila. I have to say I don’t think I’ve been through such a period on the island where rain was falling all around us and not on us. It looks like that mayContinue reading “June 19, 2024”

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Cesar Gonzalez Sr. taken from Pristine Bay looking east. We don’t get many nighttime photos of clouds, but I like this one because it shows first light of dawn coming through wispy cirrus clouds that have no rain. This is the infrared satellite image, which gives theContinue reading “June 18, 2024”
