How to use this page:
The title of each of the figures below is linked to the page where the information originates.
Since I write and post early in the day and generally do not update the page until the next morning; by clicking on the link, it allows you, the viewer, to get the latest information.
This is not only convenient but allows you to track weather events such as cold fronts and hurricanes from a single web page.
In addition, in the right column is a very useful widget. It is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Synopsis...A tropical wave in the central Caribbean will move into the W Caribbean Mon. A tropical wave in the central Atlantic will enter tropical N Atlantic waters Mon... reach the E Caribbean Tue and move into the central Caribbean Wed.
2.  A tropical wave and a surface low pressure system (Invest 96L) located several hundred miles southwest of the Cape Verde Islands are producing a concentrated area of showers and thunderstorms, which are beginning to show signs of organization. Environmental conditions are expected to be conducive for further development, and a tropical depression could form by midweek as the disturbance moves westward at around 15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent
All interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras should track this system as it moves West towards us.
3. The Saharan Air Layer (SAL) has again decreased slightly in area and increased slightly in density.
