Caribbean Rainmaker

The National Hurricane Center (NHC), is following an area of disturbed weather across the SW Caribbean Sea. There's plenty of clouds and rain in the region and it should persist for much of the week as it moves West.

NHC says the disturbance has a 30% chance for development in the area highlighted in yellow over a period of 5 days.

Even if nothing organizes, the rain will move over many areas on & off from Panama north into Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and possibly Honduras. These rainfall totals could lead to flooding.

There are a handful of other areas in the Tropics, but all are of little consequence. However, the huge plume of Saharan Dust that's emerged out of the West Coast of Africa may reach the Caribbean in the next few days. It may cause hazy skies and be a concern for folks with respiratory issues. Be Alert.

We'll be watching
