A rain shower high up in the clouds produced this bright rainbow at 5PM about 1 hour before sunset. There was very little rain at ground level.

Warm dry weather has returned after last weeks wet weather.

A band of showers passed across Belize between 2 and 4 in the afternoon.
Belmopan received 55 mm (2.2 in) of rainfall.
This rain was a welcome relief from the very dry weather over the past few months.
Another band of rain is approaching from the east which may produce some more rainfall after midnight or tomorrow morning (see image).

The previous cold front has broken apart and is moving rapidly off to the east.
Today was sunny and a little cooler.
Only a trace of rain was measured due to the passage of the Squall and Cold Front.

Weather Last Night

The Image shows the approaching Squall.

The Squall Line associated with the cold front passed through Belmopan about 7:45 PM local time accompanied by some Lightening and light rain.

Parts of Belmopan experienced strong gusts of wind with the passage of the Squall. Some garbage cans were blown about.

Watching a cold front approaching from the northwest.

This one may cause some trouble for Belize due to the fact that there is a large and powerful sunspot facing planet Earth.

Will give an update tomorrow.

The only effect that the squall line had on the Belmopan area was about 10 minutes of gusty cold wind around 8:30 PM last night. There was no rain.
Today was a nice day, cool and cloudy in morning then warm and sunny in afternoon.
No sign of rain for the foreseeable future.
