Hello!

So according to the forecast we are in for some heavy rainfall and storm winds tomorrow Friday.

Wind speed potential for Jamaica will be about 5 to 39 mph.

We have been receiving light rain since yesterday with intermittent moderate rainfall. Not much wind in my area as yet.

We are currently in a Tropical Storm Watch as of 5pm today Thursday.

According to the satellite images at time of writing, most of the system is scattered and surrounding Jamaica.

We all know what comes next! Flooding and landslides!

Be safe!

Hello!

We have a strong tropical wave that is passing Jamaica.

We were in need of rain due to the heat wave in the area.

Intermittent showers and thunderstorms moved over Jamaica during the night to the early morning, and Western parishes are currently experiencing thunderstorms.

The forecast calls for scattered showers and thunderstorms.

Stay safe!

Hi!

For the month of April and early part of May we were having mostly drought conditions. It was very hot and humid.

In the latter part of May the rains began and gave us some relief. Scattered showers and thunderstorms in most parishes as of today May 31, 2023.

Local Forecast for May 31, 2023 from Metservice.gov.jm
The Trough is producing a large area of unstable weather across the western Caribbean, including Jamaica, and is expected to linger at least for the rest of the week. Expect cloudy conditions with associated showers and thunderstorms across the island to persist as a result.
