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

The broad area of low pressure, 96L, associated with a tropical wave is now over water, off western Africa. Environmental conditions appear less conducive for development. The system has a zero percent chance...of becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours.

Shower activity associated with a tropical wave, 97L located just east of Martinique has become better organized. Winds have strengthened to near gale force. This system has a low chance...20 percent...of becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 48 hours...and a low chance...30 percent...of becoming a tropical cyclone during the next 5 days. This system is 1880 miles E by S of Roatan. This morning it was centered at 14.0N, 58.3W and moving west. See Figs. 11, 11a, and 11b.

All interests here should monitor these systems for further development, especially 97L.

The SAL, has increased slightly in area and density. See Figs. 9 and 9a at http://roatanweather.blogspot.com/
