The National Meteorological Service of Belize (Belize Met Service) says that a gradual increase in moisture and very unstable conditions are expected over the area later today and over the next several days due to the approach of Hurricane Eta to Central America.

The 24-hour forecast calls for cloudy skies with a few showers, periods of rain and thunderstorms mainly over southern, some coastal and offshore areas this morning, increasing and spreading over most areas this afternoon and tonight.

“A small craft caution is in effect for gusty winds and rough seas with a small craft warning likely by this evening. A flood watch is in effect for the Belize, Cayo, Stann Creek and Toledo districts,” the Met Service said.

Today’s temperature highs will range from 86 degrees Fahrenheit along the coast, to 89 degrees Fahrenheit inland, and 76 degrees Fahrenheit in the hills. Tonight’s temperature lows will range from 74 degrees Fahrenheit along the coast, to 70 degrees Fahrenheit inland, and 66 degrees Fahrenheit in the hills.

Winds will be gusty, blowing North-Northwest between 10-20 knots and the sea state will be moderate-rough, becoming rough.

High tide will come in at 11:17 a.m. and low tide will occur at 4:43 p.m.

The sun will set at 5:20 p.m. and the moon will rise at 6:58 p.m.
