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 will pass through the SW Caribbean today and through the Gulf of Honduras tonight into Wed. A second tropical wave will enter the SE Caribbean today...pass through the central Caribbean on Tue night and Wed...and pass through the W Caribbean late in the week. Conditions associated with the weakening remnant low of TS Grace will arrive near 15N55W late Wed night...reach the Leewards on Fri...and pass through the Puerto Rico area on Fri night.
2. TS Grace is forecast to weaken to a tropical depression later today, and become a remnant low by Wednesday night. Grace could also degenerate to a tropical wave during the next few days. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center. At 3am CST this morning Grace was located 3030 miles S of E from Roatan.
Currently TS Grace does not pose a threat to the Bay Islands and north coast of Honduras. But all interests here should monitor this system as it moves west towards us.
4. The Saharan Air Layer (SAL) has decreased slightly in density.
