Beautiful morning. Blue skies, a light breeze. And last night it was pleasant thanks to the light rain shower that fell in the afternoon. 29C (84F).

Light showers are forecast for the afternoon, as well as temperatures of up to 34C (93F) in Santo Domingo.

After a hot, hazy day yesterday, today we have beautiful blue skies, much less clouds, and less humid. It is 30C (86C), but it is bearable.

Yesterday despite the humidity, it did not rain.

The early morning cooled off to 25C.

Sorry, folks for not posting. Was out of town and forgot to notify the board that I would be out so someone could fill in for me.

Anyway, today we have had a hazy day. Temperature of 32C (90F) around noon, and at 2:50 pm it's a bit cooler at 30C (86F).

Short rain shower yesterday in the early evening. Appreciated, because it cooled off the evening from the summer heat to a low 25C in the early morning.

This morning we awoke to blue skies throughout, not so hot, with a light breeze.

At 9:50 am, there is a combination of some haze, some clouds, but mostly blue skies and sun.

Temperature is 28C right now (78F). Could heat up to 32C (90F) later in the day.

At 1 pm, a short rain shower fell. It's cloudy now. Looks like more showers to come.

By 1:30 pm, the shower turned into a downpour. City is overcast, and raining.

Just what Chris predicted in her early morning report:

Rain lasted about 20 minutes. Skies are still cloudy. Suppose we can expect more rain latter today.

Sunny, overcast morning has led to noon time short shower in Santo Domingo. Temperature at noon is 28C (82C), very pleasant. The skies have since cleared.

Forecast is for rains to continue, given the weak tropical wave that is passing our way.

Given the hot summer, these showers are a blessing.

Wednesday turned out to be a day of occasional short showers. It went from sunny, to partly cloudy, and the evening was pleasant. Yesterday there was a high of 32C (90F) and a low of 25C (77F). The heat was not felt so much because there was a breeze, and the showers cut the humidity somewhat.

Substitute weather teller needed for Santo Domingo

I will be traveling in Higuey and La Romana from Thursday to Monday, so if anyone who lives in Santo Domingo wants to tell what the weather is like, please do so. I am leaving at 6:30 am, so probably will be too early to post the weather.

No rain yesterday, but cloudy all day. Early morning temperature of 25C (77F) made for pleasant sleeping. Today at 10:16 am it is 27C (80F) degrees in the city. For the most party, the skies are cloudy, quite humid, looks like it wants to rain. There are patches of blue skies throughout, also.

Nothing new. Again it didn't rain yesterday despite being cloudy all day. There is a repeat of yesterday's weather today, with broad stretches of blue skies surrounded by wide areas of haze and cloudiness. The forecast is for showers. Will see.
Temperature peaked at 32C (90F) yesterday at noon, now is 27C (80F) at 10 am, and was 25C during the early morning.

Sunny morning, but haze and clouds throughout. Light breeze, which is so welcome in summer. Temperature peaked at 32C and a low of 25C in the morning. At 3:54 pm it is 29C. But because of the light breeze, does not seem as hot.

Hear some light thunder in the background. Looks like it could rain latter today. Most probably a short shower.

My prediction for rain yesterday never happened. Today, nevertheless, it has been cloudy all day and there was very light rain in the afternoon.

At 7 pm, it is quite overcast with several gray clouds covering the sky, so maybe we will see the showers today.

Regardless, while this weather is not the best for taking tourist photographs, we who live in Santo Domingo appreciate the cooling of the day.

There was a repeat today of yesterday's temperatures.

The rains yesterday turned to nothing but a few drops of water. This morning, just as much blue skies as clouds. A light breeze throughout. Some haze, but for the most part, a lovely day.
