Ok so I know people have said that it may rain for a small bit each day, but the weather has 60 % rain almost everyday next week !!! :icon_cry: Im taking friends for their first time and would hate for daily rain to bring the mood down....:huh:
they forcast rain there everyday... even in April when we were there..but that could mean a 5 minute shower..
It looks like a 50% chance of rain. That doesn`t mean that it will rain all day. Hopefully it will only be a shower or 2 just to cool it down a little. It actually has rarely rained here in the the past month or so.
We are in a SERIOUS drought. We need the rain as since the beginning of March it rained MAYBE twice. But since then it has forecasted exactly what you see and NOTHING happened. Don't even think about it.
Im not worried about it for me as I have been to Cancun several times and had a blast rain or shine, just would hate for first timer friends to be disappointed........thanks for all of the positive feedback....much appreciated...
As Tori said, we are suffering a severe drought, causing massive fires in the jungle etc.. They were saying it was almost a state of emergency for lack of rain. I'll be very surprised if it does rain (and, well, as a local I'll be happy for it, we really need it though I know it will be a bummer for tourists).
there is a popular misconception about weather forecasts! when a a 50% chance of rain is forecast it means that 50% of the coverage area will recieve rain usually isolated and not a big risk of rain ..right now we are in the dry period hardly no rain and if it does its spotty and passes quickly ! just trying to spread a little sunshine!
I wouldnt mind the rain, it just makes it hard to plan excursions and such not knowing exactly how the day will be......we'll find out soon enough......6 more days....:umbrella1:
so many excursions aren't even near your hotel, so even if it's sunny there, it could be a different story where you plan to go. It's the tropics. It's all a flip of a coin when it comes to weather.
Hi, I'm a newbie :aktion030: I live in Toledo Ohio and it has practically rained (poured) just about every day for the last 2 months... sooo... I'm gonna mentally send you all some since you need it...sorry MOM(op) but we are sick of it here!!! lol. We will be visiting in August and can't wait!!! I love reading this board, it is very helpful!! Gina
