Faith Based Events

Wednesday will continue the pattern of good sun and gusty winds.  Wednesday’s highs will be in the low 80s.

Thursday’s forecast calls for good sun and some showers and storms on a very strong breeze.  Highs on Thursday will be in the mid-80s.

In the tropics, the disturbance in the Caribbean that we’ve been watching went from a depression to Tropical Storm Eta.  At 5 am Sunday, Eta was located near 15.2 North, 75.7 West, about 500 miles east of the border of Nicaragua and Honduras.  Maximum sustained winds were 40 miles per hour, and Eta was moving west at 15 miles per hour.  A hurricane watch is in effect for portions of the Nicaraguan and Honduran coasts.  Eta is forecast to strengthen prior to landfall on Tuesday.  Computer models are not in agreement with what happens to Eta (or its remnants) after that, so we’ll watch it closely.
