    2024 Hurricane Season

    Or it is just the FACT and nobody can change what comes along, we just can watch and move with it as it appears, which makes then this "dumbest and tritest phrase" the only True word about the case.

    2024 Hurricane Season

    Hence I answered in short: It does not matter nor suggerate anything good nor bad for us here. We have to wait til the season is running and a disturbance is up and running in an area from where it could become something of interest for us. Those long range forecasts/outlooks are nothing more...

    2024 Hurricane Season

    A La Nina alone has no so ever major effect on us at all, it is always the whole big picture, which for most part stays the same. What La Nina over pacific waters does for our Atlantic Basin, is that windshear may be lower than the average seen over a whole season/longer time period. What is...

    2024 Hurricane Season

    Fox News? Lol. one of the high sensationalizing news sources. Watch them if you like it to freak out about reports of any single cloud somewhere between Africa and the Caribbean. If you want to "live" watch weather events as they really are, then follow the NOAA Websites and charts and listen to...

    2024 Hurricane Season

    The Decades, since we watch that and freak out about warmer than over average ocean temps, showed that it is nothing like that, as too many other factors play a role to finally decide as a whole if a season will produce more or less storms, more or less hurricanes, and all of that stronger or...

    Zero Hurricanes landing on DR Soil in July, that's just a Myth.

    2024 Hurricane Season

    No worries, absolutely nothing to report. I just put up the topic so we have it here for whom ever when ever want to show some pre-season news, so we can continue on the same topic once our new season is up and running.

    Hurricane Pre-Planning for Next Year & Beyond

    completely unneccessary. The actual top category 5 means winds are above that treshhold/windspeed, how much above makes really no difference for anything or anybody, because during a cat5 straight hit/eyewall walking over your place, means simply noboy human should be there at that location at...

    US Exchange Rate

    Darn, bad timing from my side. After it's absolute High on Sunday and into Monday/yesterday, the US Dollar went a tad bit back down for today. Today I get just 58.25.- Pesos at the Casa de Cambio Plaza de Brizas in Bavaro/PC. It is only a $3.000.- exchange.

    US Exchange Rate

    I am 400 km away from my Banca in Bavaro, up in the Cibao moutains, but I am sure i would get way over 58 there right now. after the weekend I will have to exchange and await at least a 58.50 pesos per dollar US. You are looking up something very wrong, maybe you looked up mexican pesitos or...

    North Coast Temperatures

    same here at my place on the E. Skies are cloud covered on 29C temps, wind is a good breeze today on 16-17mphr out of the NE, that's where always our fresh and usually several days lasting not so nice Beach Weather comes from. Perfect for farming and cattle ranches, my little cornfield is rising...
