By Belize Live News Staff: The umbrellas can stay home again today. Belize wakes to another stretch of warm, relatively dry weather, with sunshine ruling the day and the fair spell showing no sign of breaking before the weekend.
The National Meteorological Service reports sunny skies with a few cloudy spells today, turning partly cloudy tonight, with showers or thunderstorms staying isolated wherever they pop up at all.
The heat comes along for the ride. Inland areas will bake at 93 degrees Fahrenheit (34 Celsius) before easing to 74 (23 Celsius) overnight. The coast tops out at 88 degrees Fahrenheit (31 Celsius) with a warm low of 82 (28 Celsius), while the hills reach 82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 Celsius) and cool to a pleasant 68 (20 Celsius).
