August 7th to 13th

Post by Ali »

We'll be in Tobago this time and I was hoping the weather would be fine.
But by the looks of this image things don't look too promising :(

what do you think?

Yes Ali

There has been a bit more rain in recent weeks and it rained most of yesterday and last night in Tobago.

It is normally sunshine and showers but at this time of year there can be longer spells of rain when a Tropical Wave passes. About 2 Tropical Waves are coming per week at the moment so if the trend continues you could expect 2 rainy days throughout your week.

That gives you 5 days of sunshine and showers.

Oh don't worry ... it's still raining now ... will clear up.

2 more Waves on the way but the next one is dragging dry air behind it so ... by the time you get there you should be dealing with the sunshine for at least a few days before the 2nd Wave comes through around the weekend or as late as Monday.

These rainy interludes give everyone a chance to chill out and rest ... have a beer and maybe lime with the Tobagonians.

It's all good ...
