TORRENTIAL RAINS HERALD START OF RAINY SEASON

* Tropical torrential rains open RAINY SEASON in Belize last night.


TORRENTIAL RAINS START NIGHT OF JULY 16-17TH, , 2009, IN WESTERN BELIZE

One month out of cycle, the RAINY SEASON has started in Western Belize. We expected the rainy season to start in June, the traditional month. We have had some showers, but nothing like last night. Really TORRENTIAL rains coming down, going to saturate the soils around here for agriculture. The plants are loving all this, but the soft dirt used by the government has washed out of all those years of holes in the roads and driving has gotten really bad again and expected to last through until November and maybe even into February. Nearly ALL our roads are dirt and gravel sometimes.
