Saturday Nov. 13, 2010

Skies will be partly sunny with high level cloudiness. Showers and squalls may be intermittent. Today winds will be N to NE at 10 to 15 mph. Waves will be 1 to 4 feet in height. A weak cold front is moving off the Texas coast and will stall on Monday. It will be reinforced by more cold air and another cold front on Tuesday. The cold front will extend from the Florida Panhandle to the Bay of Campeche on Tuesday and dissipate.

A broad area of low pressure over the SW Caribbean will move slowly NNW to the NW Caribbean 

by late Wednesday, possibly as Tropical Storm Virginie. There is a 40% chance of this system 

developing into a  tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours. Conditions are favorable for further 

development. A Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate 94L on Monday.

At 6am LT, this 1009 mb low was centered at 11N by 77W or about 735 mile SE of us. It presently 

is moving NW at 5mph. Computer models show it coming ashore in Nicaragua or NE Honduras. 

Basically, 94L is following the general path of the previous seven tropical systems we have 

experienced this year. We can expected 94L to continue W to NNW because of the cold fronts 

from the north.

All interests in the Bay Islands and North Coast of Honduras should monitor the progress of this storm.

The air temperatures will be in the low 70s (F) to the low 80s or 24 to 25 (C).

At depth, ocean water temperatures are about 81F to 82F or 26C to 27C.

The tides:                                                  Moon and Sun

high tide 3:23 am LT                                 Moon Rise –12:09 am LT

For Thursday Nov. 04, 2010

Skies will be increasingly cloudy with numerous squalls. The first of two, strong cold fronts in the Gulf of Mexico, has reached the Yucatan Straits and is moving off to the SE. The second, strong cold front has entered the NW Gulf. Look for increasing north winds. Today winds will be NW to N at 15 to 20 mph and stronger. Waves will be 1 to 4 feet in height or higher. These cold fronts will dominate our weather for the next few days.

Tomas is a tropical storm. It is still expected to restrengthen into a hurricane in the next 48 hours. It has finally begun its long awaited turn to the north. The maximum sustained winds were 50mph. Minimum central pressure has decreased to 998 mb. It is moving NNW at 6 mph.

All interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras should continue to monitor Tomas’ track for the next day or so.

The air temperatures will be in the high 70s (F) to the low 80s or 24 to 25 (C).

For Wednesday Nov. 03, 2010

Again, our skies will be mostly sunny with a possibility of scattered rain showers. A strong cold front across the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, is expected to reach the Yucatan Straits tomorrow. A second, strong cold front will enter the Gulf on Thursday. Look for increasing north winds. Today winds will be NE to E at 10 to 15 mph becoming NW to N later today. Waves will be 1 to 4 feet in height.

Tomas has weakened to a tropical depression. It is still expected to restrengthen in the next 48 hours. At 5am EDT, it was located about 750 miles E by S (101⁰) of Roatan. The maximum sustained winds were 35mph. Minimum central pressure has increased to1006 mb. It is moving WNW at 5 mph.

This morning’s 3 day forecast track still has it heading northwest, then north and finally northeast on Friday. It is still highly uncertain when, and where the storm will make this turn. All interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras should continue to monitor Tomas’ track.

The air temperatures will be in the high 70s (F) to the low 80s or 24 to 25 (C).

Our skies will be mostly sunny with a possibility of scattered rain showers. A cold front will move off the Gulf coast on Tuesday. Winds will be NE to E at 10 to 15 mph. Waves will be 1 to 4 feet in height.

Tomas has weakened to a tropical storm. It is expected to restrengthen back into a hurricane on Friday. At 5am EDT, it was located about 1260 miles E by S (101⁰) of Roatan. The maximum sustained winds were 50mph. Minimum central pressure was 1003 mb. It is moving W at 12 mph.

This morning’s 5 day forecast track still has it heading due west towards the Honduras-Nicaragua border. The consensus of the computer models remains that it will begin a turn to the NE well before it reaches there. It is still highly uncertain when, and where the storm will make this turn. Also, remember 5 day forecasts can be 200 to 300 miles in error.

This is a very large and dangerous storm system. Therefore, all interests in the Bay Islands and on the North Coast of Honduras should continue to monitor Tomas’ track.

The air temperatures will be in the high 70s (F) to the low 80s or 24 to 25 (C).
