Hi There,
I am flying out to Puerto Plata on Monday, arriving at about 4pm local time i think. I am really hoping the weather is going to be nice for the two weeks i'm there. I know to expect some rain obviously, but a few previous holidays have been ruined by rain... never mind ey?!... Also, it's my boyfriends first time in the Caribbean and i really want it to be what he expects. I know i cant control the weather lol, but my i wish i could.

Well we are headed in the right direction for Sarah. We have partly overcast conditions and the sun is trying so hard to break through. We had some rain overnight but it has cleared away now. IT is only 79 F with a light breeze.

Overnight it was quite chilly. Well at least to those of us who live here it felt chilly! IT felt great for sleeping.

Have a great day.

I am flying out to HVGB on 14th May for my honeymoon - it will be our first time to the Caribbean.

Hopefully the weather will be kind to us - if not we'll have to occupy ourselves elsewhere ;o)

Wednesday April 25

Well we have another overcast day. Yesterday the improvement in conditions did not last long and we had big black clouds roll in and they dropped a fair amount of rain on us. Overnight it rained some more and that continued this morning.

Currently it is only 79F and we are overcast. It is not raining and I hope it is clearing a bit. For those of us who live here 79 F can be quite cool. Yesterday I was in a turtleneck sweater, long pants and socks. It was quite a funny sight actually.

Have a great day.

Thursday April 26

Good morning. Well another yuckkkky day in paradise. I've looked at several different satellite loops and I swear there is this little patch of clouds sitting right on top of us here! It just won't go away. It poured rain over night.

It is only 75F right now, with a light breeze. Right now it is not raining but we are overcast.

Have a great day.

Today is a holiday here, well actually it is tomorrow but the government moved the holiday to today so we can enjoy a long weekend! I intend to enjoy it.

Long term forecast.

I know from experience websites like wunderground, cnn, and weather always predict rain for the islands. These sites are predicting 60% to 100% chance of rain for the next 10 days. What do you think the weather will actually be?

Wednesday May 2

This is day 5 of our stunning weather. We have bright blue skies, no clouds and a nice breeze.

Yesterday we had a few big fluffy clouds provide some relief from the sun in the afternoon, but that was as bad as it got.

Long term forecasts: I have covered this before and will gladly repeat it. Ignore them. They are usually way off base. IF we are going to get a 10 minute shower at 7pm, it will show up as bad weather. IF they are going to get rain in Santiago - it shows rain all over the place. We get very different weather here then there.

If you are coming on vacation soon to the Puerto Plata area - the odds are you will see lots of sun but you will most likely see some rain showers late in the day. And you might get the odd overcast day with some rain. But it is vacation, enjoy it.

Have a great day.

Planner, thank you so much for your daily weather forecasts, they are a great help. I and my Wife are arriving on Monday for 14 days, and expect the weather to be changeable but warm.

Thanks again.
