“Winter” on the Island
Normally when you start your Fall season you also will start some damp and cold along with the beautiful colorful leaves.
Minus the snow, ice, sleet and freezing cold, Roatan also has ‘winter’. Of course the ‘bitter cold’ here is more of lows in the 70’s F for temps. Here it may be the start of ‘winter’ weather that locals call the ‘rainy season’. That said it does not rain everyday here, just like it does not rain, or further on in the year, snow there. Can it get wet? Certainly. Last year was a record breaking ‘rainy season’ whereas the four months of October, November, December and January generated over 90” of rain whereas the norm for those four months is about 50”. It is a gorgeous sunny day today on the island a very nice outdoor ‘beach, dive, fish, golf, snorkel day. Personally, living here I enjoy much of this time of year. Weather cools as does the water and the breezes.
Tourism & traffic from cruise ships is minimal and quiet and tranquil is abundant. The closer we get to the first of the year the more of the ‘rainy season’ you may experience if you are visiting. Normally that is not all day, every day, it is more like a part of a day, though just like your winter there it may build in intensity as you close in on January.
-Road Repair and Paving
Above I mentioned that the average rainfall for the ‘rainy season’ last year was almost double the average of many years. In that every action has a reaction, what it created was it was so wet that it generated a lot of needed road repair and for months it was all but impossible to actually do. Well it dried out last Spring and they have been paving ever since. The travel to West Bay, Palmetto Bay and other places has greatly improved with parts of it now patched but also some very nice concrete roads built. Right now the main road starting at just east of Parrot Tree heading west is really in high gear with very nice concrete roads. A very real plus for all that live or visit here.
