Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Marie-Eve Couture at Media Luna near Parrot Tree. She is visiting from Quebec, Canada.

The photo is appropriate because today and tomorrow we will have crystal clear blue skies. Starting Sunday into Monday we will have more clouds and chances at morning showers and a windy end to next week.

Today and tomorrow we will have winds calming to 5-10 mph from the east, while seas south side are around 2 feet. Sunday into the middle of the following week we will have winds from the east around 15 mph and seas 3 feet. Sunday and especially Monday and Tuesday we will have decent chances of seeing morning showers. Starting midweek, things get drier and windier, with trade winds 15-20 days and 20-25 night with south side seas 4 feet.

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Carla Scram and shows the sun peaking through the clouds in West End. The sun doesn’t have to peak through anything but blue sky this morning. We’re in for some great weather days.

Our satellite is clear and likely will be clear all day. We don’t have much of a chance of rain through the weekend. Today through the weekend we will have east winds around 15 mph. Today we will have 3 foot seas, but starting tomorrow we will have 2 foot seas.

As we move into a drier time of year, it is the perfect time to visit our islands and to maximize the fun, schedule a trip on the Jolly Roger Roatan catamaran. They will find the calmest waters for your snorkel adventure!

Good morning Bay Islands. Randy Neeman called this photo “The Calm Before The Storm.” That is right. At 5:30, Sandy Bay picked up a tenth of an inch in a morning shower, but rain and especially wind is on the way.

At 8:45 a.m. we can see the clouds just to our north that will bring the wind and rain. Both should increase as the day goes on with the peak of wind being overnight tonight, with 20-30 mph north winds and seas up to 8-9 feet, especially Northside. Rain will be off and on and this shouldn’t be a flood. Tomorrow rain will be less and winds will decrease to about 15 mph by afternoon. Wednesday and Thursday we will have 15 mph east winds and dry conditions. Friday and Saturday look calmer and drier. Have a great week!

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Betsy Vannatta in West End. After a couple of days of very strong east winds, those are subsiding this morning. Winds will stay 15 mph and turn northeasterly this afternoon with seas 2-3 feet and we will stay dry today.

Tomorrow morning will start out quite calm, with north winds around 10 mph and seas 2 feet, but the will get strong quickly starting around noon through the evening, with north winds 25 mph gusting to 30 mph and seas 9 feet. Scattered showers should bring about an inch of rain, perhaps a bit more to Utila.

Wednesday winds will calm to around 15 mph by afternoon and seas will start the day around 7-8 feet and calm to 5 feet by afternoon with only a small chance of a shower.

Starting Thursday we are back to east winds around 15 mph and seas 3-4 feet east side with dry conditions into the weekend. Have a great Sunday!

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Andre Palmer, who captured a fairly tranquil sea looking back toward Helene. The sea will not be that calm with the possible exception of Monday morning. Today we will have daytime winds 20 mph from the east and 4 foot seas. Overnight we will have 30 mph east winds and 5-6 foot seas. Tomorrow winds will get calmer through the day, mostly around 15 mph from the northeast and seas 3 feet. Monday morning starts out with 5 mph north breezes and 1 foot seas, but by evening we should be up to 30 mph north winds. Monday night we will have heavy seas, especially north, at about 9 feet. While the weekend will be dry, we will have scattered showers, some perhaps heavy, on Monday. Tuesday things try to calm down, with midday northeast winds 15 mph and seas around 5-6 feet. Wednesday we go back to east winds around 15 mph and dry conditions the rest of next week. Have a great weekend!

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day is called “El y Ella” by the photographer, Naomi Jackson on Utila. This happy couple will be swaying in the windy conditions the next couple of days.

On satellite we have clear skies, but also windy conditions, with east winds 20 mph and seas 4-5 feet. Tonight and tomorrow night will be the windiest, with 30 mph wind gusts and seas perhaps up to 6 feet. We should be dry until we get to Monday when we get a strong, but short, norther, giving us 30 mph north winds Monday night and seas 6-7 feet as well as scattered showers, but things will get calmer quickly and by Wednesday we will be back to east winds and dry conditions.

If you are planning a trip to Roatan via cruise or plane, keep in mind that no matter which direction the wind is blowing, the other side of the island will be calm and you can enjoy a great boat ride and snorkel, as Jolly Roger Roatan finds you the calmest cove in the island and gets you back on time.


Lowest tide is 5 p.m. Have a great Friday!

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day show calm reflections from Turtle Beach between West Bay and West End. WB and WE are back to their typical calm selves because our 3 foot waves are back on the south side due to our normal trade winds returning. Those trade winds will be getting stronger.

Many locations got less than a tenth of an inch in a quick early morning shower. Most of us are dry at 8:15 a.m. There are some clouds in the Guanaja area, but these are moving northwest with the southeast winds and should miss the big island. We will keep a very small chance of a shower for the morning, but most of us should stay dry. The main story is the wind. Today we will have 15 mph east winds and 3 foot seas getting up to 15-20 tonight with 3-4 foot seas. Tomorrow night and Friday night look like the windiest periods, with easterly/southeasterly gusts up to 30 mph and seas up to 6 feet. Things get a little calmer Sunday and Monday, with perhaps a better chance of rain on Monday.

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Jordan Byrne, who took this sunrise photo of the Carnival Jubilee arriving this morning from his home in West End.
Jordan noted the incredibly calm seas and indeed, our seas are right around 1 foot with very light winds. Tomorrow things start getting windier.

Our satellite image at 8:15 a.m. shows some popcorn clouds, that brought about a tenth of an inch of rain to Guanaja around 7:50 a.m. They are moving to the west, so we may see a shower here or there before 10 a.m. After that we should be dry. Dry conditions will dominate the week ahead, with only very small chances of morning showers.

The main story over the next few days will be the wind, with east winds tomorrow 15 mph and 2 foot seas and starting Thursday into the weekend daytimes east winds 17-22 mph and 3-4 foot seas and nighttime 25-30 mph winds and 5-6 foot seas.

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Amanda Engle, who took this photo of the morning mist at sunrise over Punta Blanca. We rarely get cool enough for ground level mist, but we did during our recent cool spell, which is mostly over, with morning low right around 70 degrees now.

The forecast is quite dry. Today we have west winds around 10 mph and seas 2 feet. This evening those winds will shift to the north and by tomorrow we will have light and variable winds and seas 1 foot, making it the calmest day of the week ahead. The reason for that is by Wednesday the easterly trade winds start, with 10-15 mph and 3 foot seas Wednesday, and 20 mph daytime and up to 30 mph nighttime winds with 5 foot seas southside Thursday into the weekend. Have a great Monday!

Good morning Bay Islands. Our photo of the day comes from Trish Johnson who took this photo near Brick Bay.

Our forecast is nice and straightforward. Very dry, very sunny, moderately windy from the east, winds around 10-15 mph and seas 3 feet, though Saturday night into Sunday morning should be windier, 15-20 mph and seas 4 feet southside. We are looking for trade winds to really get windy end of next week.

I know that tomorrow, a lot of you fellas will be cooking, and cooking means grilling a prime steak for a special day from Carniceria Rosita in French Harbour and Coxen Hole.

Low tides are 1 p.m. and 1 a.m. Have a great Friday!
