Wow - I was pretty sure someone got it. Looks like more rain tonight too - somewhere. We could use it here in Puerto Plata. It is dry and dusty everywhere.

Hmmm I am positive I posted the weather yesterday but it is not appearing.... Go figure.

The weather is once again stunning. As they say - "It's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood, a beautiful day in the neighboorhood, would you be mine, could you be mine, won't you be my neighbour?" Anyone else remember Mr. Rogers????

Ok back to the weather. It is currently 86F but it feels much hotter. There is not a cloud in sight and we have a very light breeze. Yes, it is humid. We got a quick rainshower last night about 6pm. They just did some construction on my street (non paved road) now it is a mud hole. What a mess. But it will soon dry out.

Have a great day.

Excellent idea this weather report. Never been to DR, well never been to abroad before (outside UK) so am finding it useful to help plan my first trip. Obviously wouldn't know a tropical storm if it bit me on the bum so not so sure how serious it all is. Anyway, am hoping to go on end aug beginning sept to PTO Plata (as long as no one tells me it would be a big mistake), and from reading what I have I think I may be right in presuming its all a bit of a lottery, yes?
MAny thanks

Good morning. WE did develope a few clouds yesterday afternoon but got no rain!

Right now it is hot and humid with some cloud coverage. It feels like it will rain later this afternoon! I hope so we need some rain.

Scrubmuncher: It is quite hot and humid in August / September. There is a very remote possibility of a Tropical Storm. It isn't something to get very concerned about. The pattern is to have hot humid weather with the possibility of thunder storms later in the day. You should be fine that time of year.

Have a great day.

I hope so Planner. The tropical waves have been hiding themselves under layers of other weather and also following the coastline of Central America. There is one lying just outside the Caribbean Island Chain ... and this one should drop some needed rain relief on us when it arrives.
