Sounds great! Better than other weather reports - they predict thunderstorms all week :(

Can't wait now!

Thanks again :p

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood!

Wind is very light - but picking up slightly. Temp is 25C/77F, and as you can see....it would be a fun "play in the waves" day at Sosua beach!

Medley - stop looking at the weather predictions....it'll only make you worry for no reason! For example....it says there is a 30% chance of scattered showers today....now, look at the pictures....:cheeky: That's not to say that we won't get rain at some point today....but look what you can enjoy before the "weather" gets here.....if it actually does!! ;)

Beautiful photos Luv. This is destined to be the best thread on DR1!

I'll be seeing you guys soon. Curt, behave yourself until I get there.

By the way, it's 20 degrees (F not C), windy and snowing up here. I hope I can still get a flight out.

It's a strange day today! Sun, cloud, haze and now a very light rain...more like a mist. Currently about 27C/80F with very little wind. Swells are still quite high although you can't really tell from the above picture!


8AM at Playa Chiquita

Before I even finished this post....the "mist" stopped and the sun is back out!:paranoid:

Weather looks perfect, I will use the rain as an excuse to grab a few drinks :p Setting off the airport now, I'll be there in no time.

Thanks again for settling my nerves!

Medley.

It's a beautiful day in Sosua! Currently 26C/79F with a light breeze. There are a few clouds around....might get a shower a little later on....but then again....we might not! ;)

The sea has certainly calmed! I cannot hear the waves crashing like they were over the weekend. I'll take a picture of Sosua Bay and post it a little later.

Have a great day! :)

Yes, thanks for the photos! I can almost feel the sun on my face. I can't wait to arrive on 2/28 - first trip to the DR!

Another great day! I'd like to thank Catcherintherye for bringing the nice weather! (He's convinced that it's beautiful out because he's in town....we'll just let him think that ;))

Currently 28C/82F with a nice light breeze. I haven't made it to Sosua Bay yet - which is rather pathetic considering that it's only about a 3 minute walk away! :ermm: So....you'll have to settle for last night's sunset from Playa Chiquita!

This is great news. I was fearful of the online weather forecasts about the coming week (will be arriving on Saturday =D). Really excited and can't wait to explore!

We had a little rain in the night and this morning - but it has cleared up nicely! Currently it is 27C/80F, sunny with a few clouds still lingering and a nice breeze.

These were taken at Escondido Bay this afternoon.
