myTobago – your questions, review and comment about Tobago

I don't know what our Weather Wizard has done,but since he left Tobago the weather has been terrible.Rain,rain and more rain.Yesterday it didn't stop all day.
David

Yes David ... and it looks like it could rain most of today too.

Low pressure has developed and is giving some very strong echoes on the sat-loops so the rain will be quite heavy at times.

Regards

Good morning
Just to let you know that as David says the weather has been very wet but this morning has started a lot brighter and looks fair .
Paul

Oh gawd! But at least the greens and fairways will be lush for a round of golf, if the water has run off them!!
5 days and counting....

Thanks Paul

It is still moist so although the general rain has cleared away there should be plenty of showers.

Mick ... I just cannot understand how you can travel all the way to Tobago to smack golf balls around in that heat. Thought I was mad

I will update Liquid Sunshine tomorrow ... been busy today ... but anyone travelling to and from the UK and northern Europe this week should expect disruption to their travel ... heavy snow about from Monday.

Regards

Hi Paul, I'm allowed one game while out there and my wife says she will caddie. Probably to make sure I don't spend too long in the 19th hole bar Anyway, it beats trying to hold onto a club with numb fingers in dear old bligthy. I think us softie southerners are going to get it worse than you hardy folk up north.

Paul. You're prediction for drier weather for possibly the next couple of weeks is good news for us as we'll be arriving in Castara this Friday. From the frigid Canadian plains to glorious warmth and sunshine is what we're looking for.

Hi Glen ... more Canadians, oh lordy, keep up the good work ... looks like another couple of good weeks for Castara

Mick ... it's looking a bit hairy for the UK this week ... the main issue is flight/train/road disruption which seems likely up to Thursday ... it has already started snowing in Yorkshire and it will get far worse before conditions improve ... this, of course, also applies to those returning to the UK this week so there is a possibility that some lucky brits will have an extra day in Tobago if the UK weather proves to be as bad as expected.

Regards

We will be arriving to Tobago for our first time on Feb 6th, we will be there until Feb 20...is there any chance we will see sunshine while we are there? It looks like this weeks forecast is rain!!!

Hi Crazy Person (good to see there is Canadian blood in you)

I can (and I choose my word carefully) guarantee that you will have sunshine and moonshine at some point or points during your 2 week stay.

If you check my last weekly update on Liquid Sunshine you will see that I have noted the moisture around right now which means that there will be quite alot of showers ... but there is dry Saharan Dust moving in by the end of this week, alot of it ... so I am predicting a fairly dry period for a week or two for you.

But it would be a shame if there is no rain ... it's lovely to swim in the sea while it is raining.

The main worry this week is getting to Tobago for all the Europeans ... today, the main airport for Tobago (Gatwick) has had severe disruption but hopefully it will improve later this week ... there is still potential snow around in the the UK for a few more days yet.

So, I guess, if you can get to Tobago, you will not be disappointed even if it rains a bit

I hope the airports in Canada are OK for you.

Regards

That sounds great! Thanks for the info!

The weather here is not bad right now...we live close to the mountains (Alberta) so we get the nice winter weather (still not as good as Tobago sounds). Hopefully the weather hangs in there at least until our plane leave the ground!

Looks like there are some other prairie canucks headed for Tobago!!!

OK ... lets run to the hills

Regards

Hi everybody in UK.
How is the situation in UK now. We are going tomorrow from Copenhagen, and then next day to Tobago????? I am a little bit nerveous right now.


regards Susanne

Well ... it's like this ...

The Met Office underestimated the snowfall that fell over southern parts of the UK but I am sure they will make themselves look good about it regardless.

As a possible consequence, they seem to have overestimated the amount of snowfall for the northern UK with 'extreme' weather warnings ... but so far only a trace of snow is settling on my doorstep.

So ... the south should be fine but a bit slippery tommorow morning and the north a bit slushy and messy.

I am looking at the sat loops and I think that the energy that the North Sea was giving to this weather system has now run out of steam ...

I sense that you will be OK tomorrow in the UK. I hope things are Ok in Denmark.

I hope this helps ... otherwise Dr Stephan may recommend something to keep you cool

Regards

Hi Paul.

Thank you very much, for using time on me. Now i am a bit more relaxed.


We arrive Gatwick tomorrow at 21,50 it is a bit late, but just to go to Hotel sleep, and then early up and fly fly 48 hours from now and we will be on Tobago.

Thanks again Paul.
And i will remember to tell Duck and Jade, and say hello from you. Duck has just called our daughter. hehe.

Hey ... watch that Duck !!

You will be fine tomorrow ... it's looking good ... have a good journey and a good sleep ... I am sure it will be cool.

Have a lovely holiday and say 'Ho' to Duck for me.

Regards

Well it looks like the weather has finally broken the sky is clearing nicely and the humidity has fallen....in fact it feels beautifully fresh.
David

Thank you Paul. I will say to Duck.

David. It sounds very good.So the weather will be very good when we are in Castara tomorrow.

2 hours to go Copenhagen.
Regards Susanne
