On the north coast, the weather has been generally wet and generally sunny these last few months!
Let me give you an example - Last night, it rained. This morning, we woke up to overcast skies. Midmorning the sun came through. Now we have a slight hazy cloud cover but the weather is good beach weather. There is a nice breeze blowing that keeps us from frying our brains. It is a glorious day. There may be a few more short sprinklings of warm rain showers as the day progresses. There may be a few more, or a few less clouds in the sky, as the winds blow them by. I would describe the day as 'clear, with a slight haze". The weather report for Puerto Plata today, describes it as overcast.
Tomorrow and Wednesday, it is supposed to be sunny. I'm sure we will see a short shower or two. Thursday it is supposed to be partly cloudy.
I agree with Dolores - we have to invent a new weather language to describe the weather conditions here realistically.
