No biggie whatsoever...and that's what I get for asking about the *gasp* weather anyway!

We were sitting outside at night in shorts and short sleeved shirts all week and we are next to the beach. Last night it did turn colder. I did not change what I was wearing but I did grab a blanket so that I could still sit outside. When I walked my dog last night I was still wearing shorts and T shirt and I was completely comfortable and that was perhaps at 9pm (near the beach in Playacar). And If I had worn long pants during the day I would have been very uncomfortable as it would have been too hot for me.

For a visitor I would say conditions are normal. Shorts and T-shirt weather during the day. And if you are going out at night and expect to sit outside long pants and a long sleeved shirt may be best.

Or, as my intrepid youngest reminded me -- those pareo wraps are good, too!

Ha! Yeah, maybe when that famous weather question comes up we should say that it's unusually cold and everyone would pack wrong! That would be pretty mean!

I would totally have to agree with that statement.

A few years ago it was chilly in Playa over the holidays; 60f. In the evening we witnessed a number of local children in the square in the evenings wearing Snowmobile suits!
Where in the world did they get them?

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Be a good time to visit the ruins. When we went to Tulum is was hotter than hell, even though it is right on the beach.

A cold front!

Yes, do pack your long pants and a sweater/top. The "cold" extends to parts of Cuba and the Cayman Islands...(in case any of you are venturing that way....)

With the cooler temps, does anyone know what the water temp is like this time of year? Looking to do some snokeling near the end of January.

I cannot say for certain what the water temp is, however do keep in mind that this cold front is temporary and may last 3 - 7 days? Do not worry about your January snorkling...
