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 are two very useful widgets. The first is a tropical weather tracker which shows you the location and forecast track of active tropical storm systems.

The second is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

Again today, skies will be mostly sunny. Seas will be calm at 1 to 3 feet. Winds will be light and variable in direction at 5 mph to less today.

A strong cold front will overtake a slow-moving front from Key West to the Bay of Campeche, Mexico tonight...strong to near-gale N to NE winds are expected N of the stronger front. The new front will rapidly move through the Gulf of Mexico...pushing into the NW Caribbean Saturday. Expect increasing cloudiness, wind and rain with the approach and passage of this front. The front will extend from Cuba to Honduras Saturday night, then become stationary, and weaken from the Windward Passage to Nicaragua late Sunday.

The next cold front is expected to reach the Texas coast late Monday.

The air temperatures will range from the mid 70s (ºF) to the low 80s (ºF) or 21ºC to 26ºC.

Ocean water temperatures are 78 to 79ºF or 25 to 26ºC. Visibility is generally 20 to 80 feet.
