Weather Nov. 6-Nov.12

Hi,

We will be in the area from Nov.6 through Nov.12. From what we understood, the weather will be quite nasty for at least the 4 first days. Is it really that bad or can we expect that there will only be a few scattered showers? Thanks.

I guess that we souldn't worry too much about what the forecasts are. However, we had a really bad experience last year in Cuba... You're right though saying that they could not predict as long beforehand. Anyway, hope that meteologists are wrong and that we'll have terrific weather!

Meteorologists can't find their own butt with both hands and a compass. If you had their track record...you would have been out of work a long time ago. Besides, the weather will be what it will be, accurately predicted or not. You'll have a great time anyway. Relax and enjoy.

Take a look at Accuweather http://wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/p...=Find+Forecast
They're like politicians who are in power, they put a positive spin on everything.

In stead of saying there's a "chance of rain" they say "some sun"

Thanks. It's really different from one website to another!

Too bad we don't have a live webcam on michaelholmes's head when questions about the weather are posted. It would be fun watching his head explode......

Is your vacation booked? Is it paid for? Can you reschedule on a moment's notice? If your answers are Yes, Yes, and No..... then relax and take it as it comes.

Hello,

That's exactly what we intend to do. But you know, as we try to escape Canada's depressing weather, we would like to get some sunshine in Mexico!

I would also like to have 100% sunshine in late February 2005 when we escape the winter of New England, but I'll take whatever comes our way. (What I hope even more for is good weather when we fly out of and into Boston.... flying in winter weather gives me nightmares!)

I'd say that chances are you'll have both - sunshine and maybe a bit of liquid sunshine. Chances are you'll probably get more of the good variety and less of the bad.

But whatever you do, make the best of it and have FUN!

Thanks to all to be so encouraging. We will take the weather as it comes then. Besides, forecasts change from day to day so hey, we will not make a fuss out of it!

Just a few days to go and we will be down there!

I know that feeling. My BF is so nervous whenever he has to get on the plane! Good luck!

Have you looked at the webcam today? Yuk!!! But it will probably clear up in a little bit.
