Good morning.
Since 1.5 days ago, the weather over Santo Domingo is better, I mean no showers. Party cloudy skies, but the humidity combined with high temperatures is making the ambient uncountably sticky and hot, which is not good if you go to the streets dressed for work. Water vapor is high in the area. The skies are hazy, with few clouds. Conditions for this weekend are expected to stay the same, high temperatures will remain.
So the time is great for outdoor activities, ONAMET has lifted all the warnings so we finally have a break after a rainy and wet month of May.
Stay tuned...

Good evening,
Today was very wet, at around 11:30AM - 12:30PM we had heavy downpours with some wind gusts, the scene was amazing, I took some pictures to upload here but the quality is poor because it was with my cell phone so I am not uploading them. We had a break for 3 hours with sunshine, but again at around 4:00PM the rain came back, this time was not heavy, but it was consistent and it lasted until 6:30PM and that is a lot over here because rain usually is not that persistent and continuous with such strength that it had.
There is a broad area of bad weather covering the whole island of Hispaniola (La Española is Spanish). ONAMET is keeping its Alerts and Warnings for several areas, specially those in north region and the Coordillera Central.
Stay tuned...

Good afternoon,
The whole morning we had party cloudy skies, with few drops but that's just it. Now the conditions are slowly deteriorating with scattered t-storms for the rest of the afternoon. I didn't mention on my last post that ONAMET issued flash flood warnings for several provinces, specially for those in the north region of our homeland.
Dominicans should take precaution as the soil is already saturated and mudslides could occur.
There is a tropical disturbance affecting La Española.
Stay tuned...

Good morning,
Over the past few days we are having rain almost every afternoon. Yesterday we had few thunders and last Friday we had soaking rain from 2PM. At 11PM when I hit the bed last night, It was raining, and now that I wake up, it still raining.
The huricane season is around the corner, and the Caribbean has being interesting from last week to today.
It's 22ºC outside, I'm gonna make a nice pick me up cocoa with my breakfast.
Stay tuned...
