This thread will be our tent for the whole Caribbean & Centralamerican region. Observations,forecasts,daily weather,web cams and much more are going to be part of this thread.So post away my friends.

[windycity]

wow, those pics look impressive!

[boca]

They say thunderstorms with winds 50 to 60 mph wouldn't that classify as a tropical storm but I have to assume that they mean surge in the trade winds after the passage of the wave.

[cycloneye]

Yes the wind surge on the Caribbean Waters not on land.

[msbee]

Good morning Luis
it has been windy and rainy here since late last night
winds are around 16 MPH with much higher gusts. The airport recorded gusts of 33 MPH.
the rain is coming in short squalls. So far only about a 1/2 inch has fallen in my yard.
Right now the sky is gray. no rain, and very windy.
Nothing we can't handle.

Current Weather Conditions:
Juliana Airport, Saint Maarten, Netherlands Antilles
(TNCM) 18-03N 063-07W 9M
Conditions at

2006.06.13 1100 UTC
Wind from the E (090 degrees) at 16 MPH (14 KT) gusting to 33 MPH (29 KT) (direction variable)
Visibility greater than 7 mile(s)
Sky conditions mostly cloudy
Weather Light rain showers
Towering cumulus clouds observed
Temperature 80 F (27 C)
Dew Point 73 F (23 C)
Relative Humidity 78%
Pressure (altimeter) 30.03 in. Hg (1017 hPa)

[bvigal]

I did a double-take reading that this morning. But, I think they were referring to the higher elevations ("slopes") earlier in the sentence:

"AND MAY LIKELY AFFECT THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST COASTS OF
PUERTO RICO AND SOUTHERN SLOPES. WIND GUSTS OF 50 TO 60 KNOTS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THESE AREAS"

[boca]

Oh ok Luis I thought they said SW Puerto Rico and the southern slopes.

[cycloneye]

Yes I also now doublechecked and are at higher elevations.

[cycloneye]

Oh ok Luis I thought they said SW Puerto Rico and the southern slopes.

My bad boca. I now doublechecked and yes is for higher elevations and slopes.

[boca]

I guess winds at sea level are probably in the 15 to 25 knot range.

[bvigal]

Our short-lived sunshine just disappeared. Watching the radar, these showers are really moving fast! But then the wave is moving almost 25kts!! If we're getting this now, I image this afternoon/tonight will be exactly as described.

I just took the potted plants off the balcony banister, so they don't blow down. At 1000 ft, will probably have some good gusts up here.

[cycloneye]

caribepr,I would like to see how Culebra is going thru today as the strong wave moves thru that beautiful island.

HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN JUAN PR
730 AM AST TUE JUN 13 2006

VIZ001-002-AMZ710>730-132200-
730 AM AST TUE JUN 13 2006

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS.

.TODAY AND TONIGHT...A TROPICAL WAVE IS EXPECTED TO PASS JUST SOUTH
OF THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY. AS A
RESULT...CLOUDS AND SHOWERS WILL BECOME MUCH MORE WIDESPREAD ACROSS
THE ISLANDS AND WILL BE OF SUFFICIENT INTENSITY TO CAUSE LOCAL
FLOODING OF SMALL STREAMS AND URBAN AREAS. IN ADDITION...STRONG
WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THESE SHOWERS AND MUDSLIDES COULD BE A THREAT
ONCE THE GROUND BECOMES SATURATED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE
EXPECTED EACH AFTERNOON WHICH COULD LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING OF
SMALL STREAMS AND URBAN AREAS.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...

OBSERVERS SHOULD REPORT ANY SIGNIFICANT WEATHER TO THE NATIONAL
WEATHER SERVICE IN SAN JUAN.


Above is the Hazardous outlook.

[beachbum_al]

cycloneye,

Is this the wave that everyone was talking about earlier that was very impressive looking?

Shelley

[cycloneye]

cycloneye,

Is this the wave that everyone was talking about earlier that was very impressive looking?

Shelley

Yes,a few days ago this wave looked impressive but with time as it moved westward increasing shear did not let it organize.In fact since June 4 I posted here a discussion from the San Juan NWS in which they were talking about this wave for June 12 in the area as the GFS model despicted it at that time,and really GFS nailed this wave passage with only one day off which is remarkable.

But there are a couple of waves eastward that look good now.

[Janice]

Oh, thanks so much, Cycloneye. These are great pictures, graphics.


I will monitor this closely. Still hot, dry and calm here in Dorado, sunny too

[beachbum_al]

Thank you! I thought it was but wasn't sure.
