Default Rain hasn't dampened everyone's spirits

I know this winter has gone way over the top regarding rainfall and
it has made many people's lives a misery but it cheered me up to see
that at least someone enjoys a good downpour:

Hi Graham, with so many days lost by the weather, and remember I do lawn care, it did really start to get to me. Fortunately, I scrapped up the funds to get away and am certainly finding the hot sunshine here near to Cancun, Mexico a great tonic.

We have had some quite cool nights following the tail end of that cold front America had, but the night time temperatures have recovered again and daytime maximums are hitting 30+

Hired a car and drove to Chichen Itza, 3 hours each way, the toll road just went for miles without seeing anyone or anything, quite strange. Took the normal road back, which was still empty by UK standards. I would highly recommend the area, the Caribbean Sea is just beautiful and the people are great.

Still another week here yet :-)

WiFi free and all over the resort, how times have changed..

I thought I read today about a very early tropical storm forming off Barbados and heading your way later this week...

I don't think so, in fact the whole Caribbean is pretty benign for weather at the moment. A cooling easterly breeze off the sea today, but the sun is strong.

Yes, there's nothing I could see in the NHC bulletins. I think Bruce was
just trying to get you worried. ;-)
