Thanks Billy - the storm Wednesday night was something else. I don't think I have ever seen that much lightening in such a short period of time. And water!!!!! Man you should have seen the streets they looked like rivers! I would not want to be living in one of those low lying areas!!!! Those clouds built up about 5 pm and the rain started about 7pm and it rained damn hard!

Yesterday was stunning with a few clouds building up later in the afternoon and just a sprinkle of rain.

Today is hot and sunny with a light breeze! It is 87F under clear blue skies.

Have a great day.

It is HOT, HUMID and fabulous here. We have had one of the nicest weekends I can remember. Right now it is 87F under bright blue skies with barely a breeze.

The nights have gotten very hot. Both Saturday and Sunday nights were very hot with hardly a breeze to stir the air. It made dancing tough last night but somehow we managed.

Have a great day.

WOW - it is hot and humid here! This feels like August. Today you can feel the heat and humidity like a blanket! Make sure to stay hydrated and in the shade!

It is 87F right now under bright blue skies. There is almost no breeze at all. This is a day where you hope an afternoon shower will cool things down.

Have a great day.

Good morning, we had perfect weather yesterday for voting and even better weather today for celebrating.

It is 84 F under bright blue skies and we have a nice breeze. It is a great day to celebrate the election being over. Even if you don't like the outcome (I do ) it is nice that it is over. I am off to enjoy the day, eat some sancocho and drink a bit of rum.

Have a great day!

Good morning. We have another great day in paradise. It is 87F under sunny skies with a light breeze.

Yesterday was also fabulous. We had a nice breeze pick up during the evening which made it nice to sit on the balcony and enjoy the full moon!

Have a great day.

Another beautiful day here! Same as yesterday......... HOT, SUNNY, BREEZY..... no rain in sight.... but then again we could use a quick rainstorm to both cool things off and clean up the dust.

It looks like this will continue for the holiday tomorrow as well. Yes, another holiday in May...... Corpus Christi day.

Have a great day.

Good morning again - another great day here. We continue with HOT, humid but breezy days, slightly cooler at night but not much! We are hotter then average right now - feels more like August weather.

A good rain shower would be very welcome later on today!

Have a great day.

Good morning, Saturday we had another stunning day. About midnight we got a quick rainshower which helped lower the temperature just a bit.

Sunday - Mothers Day - started cloudy, then the sun came out, then the clouds returned with a shower in mid afternoon, then the sun returned and it was hot and humid. By evening it was overcast but we didn't get any rain. What a mixed bag!!!!

Today we are partly sunny, HOT and HUMID and it feels like it will rain later on today. We need the rain so it is welcome....

Have a great day.

Good morning - another beautiful sunny, hot morning....

I was right - the rains showed up late yesterday afternoon. Oh my goodness - thunder, lightening and torrential rain. The temperature dropped about 10 degrees and it was so nice after the rain stopped!

I don't think we will see more rain today but you never know.....

Have a great day.

Weather forecasts

Hi!

I'm finally going on a holiday again and guess where? Puerto Plata, Bahia de Maimon. :D
But I was checking out the weather forecasts and those didn't make me that happy.
Actually they got me a bit worried. :paranoid::ermm::surprised:

It forecasts rain, showers, storm, thunder etc.:cry:

Any ideas on this?
I will be arriving on the 8th of June, and I'm coming all the way from Holland to see some sunshine, as we have rain every day all day already.
So can someone make me happy? By telling me that we will have sun during our holiday?

Thank you! :bunny:

Well we are mostly overcast but have escaped the heavy rain (so far) that was forecast. Just goes to show you that often the weathercasts are WRONG....

It is very hot and humid and we may see a shower later... you never know.

Again - please do not pay a lot of attention to the long term forecasts. IF there may be rain somewhere even close to here they will call for rain. I think it is the cover thy butt mentality.... I am not sure.....

Have a great day.

We could use some rain soon though.

Have a great day.

Good morning. today we are overcast but it looks like the sun will burn off this cloud cover. It is very HOT and HUMID with almost no breeze.

I am sitting in the restaurant at Playa Dorada Golf Course enjoying the view this morning. Did you know the restaurant has fabulous food at a good price????

Yesterday was rainy off an on most of the day. About 1pm we had a tremendous downpour that cleaned all the dust off the streets etc.

Have a great day.

Good morning, we have overcast conditions this morning, but it is hot and humid again. It was similar yesterday and we did get some rain.

Once it rains, things seem to cool off a bit then the heat starts to build again.... But if you are near the ocean there seems to almost always be a nice breeze.

Have a great day.
