Sept. 4, 2021: Somehow we managed to have a tropical disturbance pass right over us with no rain. As the system passed into Belize it actually got a little better organized and for a time you could see some circulation. As it turns out, we’re simply the losers of the rain lottery. There was certainlyContinue reading “Sept. 4, 2021”
