diff weather in diff parts of island?

Yes they do get different weather like many countries save the little teeny ones in the Caribbean where the climate really can't be all that much different.

Weather patterns can be very different as this is a fairly large island. We also have mountains which effect how the weather passes over the island. What we see on the sattelite is a fairly large system so it will most likely but not definately effect all of us.

You also can't just drive to a different beach. From Puerto plata it would take maybe 8 or 9 hours to drive to Punta Cana...

So expect some rain storms. IF you are lucky the system won't be huge and you will get day sun and evening and nightime storms..... Cross your fingers honey.

this is fairly predictable for May. It gets rainy here.

Experience of the North Coast - it can be dry and sunny in Cabarete and pour with rain 2 kilometres away! But at the moment it's rain fairly wide spread.

Currently this weather system is widespread and according to Nooa will continue for a few more days. Hopefully by around Monday/Tuesday we'll see some sun peeking through.

We went to Miches/Laguna Limon on wednesday to do some jobs, on this trip we only missed a snowstorm, all other weather conditions we could enjoy.

And back in Juan Dolio it was still dry there, that just changed last night

"M?s seco que las rolas de Galindo"

(Dryer than the robins from Galindo) It's a local expression in Azua used to denote a place extremely dry. Galindo is a small village in Azua province, tucked against Loma del Curro, where it never rains! The landscape is barren, with absolutely no vegetation, and if it wasent for a spring above the town that provides enough water for survival, and the breathtaking view of the valley, mountains, and the emerald coast below, I would wonder what are people doing there... By the way, my cousin M?ximo has about 130,000 acres up for sale in Galindo, and the land includes the spring and the land where half the town is located.
