The Belize Meteorological Service forecasts partly cloudy skies during the morning with little to no rain. By the afternoon, however, cloudy spells will develop, bringing an increase in showers and isolated thunderstorms. Rainfall will begin inland and spread across most areas tonight.
Marine conditions remain moderate, with east-southeast winds blowing at 5-15 knots. Wave heights are expected to range between 4 and 6 feet. Mariners should exercise caution, especially as conditions may become less favorable with the arrival of evening showers and thunderstorms.
