Cyclones are in the Pacific. Here in the Caribbean we do have hurricanes but living on the north coast in Puerto Plata we seen to be in an area where they do not give us much of a problem.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center said a tropical wave over Puerto Rico could become a tropical depression any time Friday as the system moves toward Hispaniola (Dominican Republic & Haiti).

Hey everyone - sorry for the long absence, but I am back. A combination of no internet at home, brutal hours at work with NO internet access kept me away.

The weather - today was HOT, HUMID and breezy. I expect the same tomorrow......

I will try to update mornings............

Have a great day.

Two more days of hot and damn humid but with a breeze.

There are more storms out there and it looks like clouds and rain might be headed here after the weekend. I will keep you updated.

Have a great day.

Good morning - it is HOT and very HUMID today with a nice breeze - at least where I am. I am hoping for a bit of rain later to cool things off.

Lots of electricity problems in Puerto Plata - I feel sorry for locals with no backup power options - no electricity - no fan - no relief from this heat. A little rain might cool things down a bit.

Reminder to those coming to visit us soon - the kids have gone back to school and are in desparate need of school supplies! Please help by bringing what you can.

Have a great day.

Again - HOT, SUNNY and HUMID, with a good breeze. It is a great day for the beach or a pool!!!!

Yesterday we finally got a 10 minute downpour, cooled things off for a little bit and cleaned up all the dust!

Have a great day.

Well we got the rain and some wind but nothing serious here in Puerto Plata. Today was overcast with rainy periods. Tomorrow is likely to be very similar.

Have a great day.

It is pouring rain as I write this. From my balcony I have an incredible view of the city and it is completely clouded in - not over - in. Literally it seems we are in the clouds. We have thunder and lightening that is shaking the building.

It should pass in a few minutes though! At least I hope so.

Earlier it was sunny and hot with a high humidity level.

Have a great day.
