Hi Everyone,

Well I am sure that more than 40 percent of the caribean island chain are in 
for a wake up call in the next 24 hours to say the least...after such a non 
active season so far I do think we are in for a grand finalie...
The question still pops up again and again if a hurricane could pass over our 
island..I personally think no but like we know you can never say never but I 
think we are the luckiest island in the Caribean chain having Venezuela 
mainland to save us every time..

My mum is coming to visit me fairly close soon as Fiona...she looks a lot 
further south and if the trend continues maybe T.S fiona may be closer thsan we 
think..look what happenes to Earl.

Stay alert everyone...Not much for us to tend with compared to the rest of you 
further north.

Hello Everyone,

Another clear and dry day today.I was expecting to wake up to rain as Windguru 
forcasted a significant accumulation of rain for Margarita..Don't where they 
got that information because from the satelite image there are no rain clouds 
to be seen..they actually forecasted 13mm of rain..completely wrong..I hope the 
rest of the hurricane season can be like this..warn us,get it wrong and we bake 
in beautiful sunshine..

By the looks of it next week will liven up here with wind,waves and rain on the 
way..let's hope we will get out for some kitesurfing..

Stay safe eveyone..

Hi everyone,

Today is one of those classic Caribean days with light southerley winds and 
clear skies.

Again we were forecasted to have rain but it never came...thankfully I think we 
have had enough for a while.

Waiting for the wind to go kitesurfing but it dosen't look promising..

Take care everyone..

Hi everyone,

Well I woke up to thunder and lightening in the distance with a very dark and 
heavy sky.

Looks like we are in for a downpour if the satelite image is correct..

Of for a swim...still have to keep fit even if it's raining..

Stay safe

Morning all...a very wet night last night with a big band of rain coming off 
the coast of venezuela...not as much rain as predicted..as usual

Very clear this morning..actually the clearest I have seen it for a long 
time..even a little breeze which neither of them were forecasted at all..which 
I am getting used to..

Have a nice day everyone..

Good evening,

Thought I would post this photo of a view from my roof..this blob is the first 
we have had that looks this menacing for rain..let's hope is dimishes before it 
reaches us.
Margarita island dosen't have flood warnings etc etc..so as usual no-one will 
be ready for it..still drive too fast and on the other side of the roads..so 
take care..

Brace yourselves for some at least 5 to 8mm of rain..will report tomorrow 
morning with how much rain for the next islands..

Murray

Good Morning everyone,

Well the skies are bubbling up at the moment..and by the looks of it there is 
more bubbling to come..As usual these systems suddenly move NW at the last 
minute from Margarita Island because we are so close to mainland Venezuela and 
all we get is our wind sucked away to Zero with some healthy down pours of 
Rain..not the best weather for Kitesurfing but at least the gardens get a 
drink..not that they need it..it's already been a wet season so far..and a lot 
more to come..
Will keep you all informned of what passes our island and is on the way to all 
of you..stay safe out there..
