WEATHER IN THE CARIBBEAN - Why do I see rain in the forecast?

Weather apps will often show a rainy forecast for Caribbean destinations. Why is that?
That's a question I used to get a lot on social media when I was working for Club Med. People thought it was raining all the time where I was, just by looking at the weather forecast for whichever destination I was in. But there's a reason why those rainy icons keep popping up... and it doesn't mean you won't get that sunny vacation! In this video, I show you how to read that forecast, and what to look for to get accurate weather information for your travel destination.

Before Club Med, I used to be a weather presenter for 7 years (morning shows, which meant waking up at 2:30am every morning!) and now I'm back at it, this time in French for Quebec City's Radio-Canada (TV and radio). I've always been fascinated by all things weather. I'm not an expert on the topic, but I do think it's interesting to look at forecasts and how they're put together. Let me know if this video helped! Any meteorologists out there? Share your wisdom with us! :D

@laurasc84366 2 года назад

Love this ! We are leaving for Cancun on Tuesday, Its gonna be raining and with my luck it will snow. Our last two trips , July in Boston...think 44 was the high YES and rained about everyday, and Vegas in Sept Oct, rained IN THE DESERT! every other day with cool temps. I guess it is what it is .. I will bring the rain gear and sweatshirts just in case.

@nuralshyn 3 года назад

Thank you! It’s first time when I’m going to visit Cancun with my family, and I shocked when I saw forecasts for the whole week when I will be there. You saved my mood and nerves.

@JessLaventure 3 года назад

I'm so glad you saw this video then! :) I wouldn't worry at all, you may get some rain but it doesn't mean you'll get rain all day every day! You'll be surprised to see how fast the rain dries too!

@petej76 2 года назад

Great video! I shared it with my colleague who is going on vacation to Cancun in a couple days and was freaking out based on those pesky icons. I sailed in the Caribbean for months and tried to explain the weather situation and how the icons are misleading. Your video will definitely drive home my explanation and reduce her stress. Thanks again!

@p1nk_anthem Месяц назад

That’s so funny to me because I’m currently in Cancun and my trip ends right before yours. Currently it’s been on and off rainy but really windy. Like strong winds so the ocean waves are a little high but besides that it’s nice. As I type this there is also a loud thunderstorm although it is early in the morning so I expect it to pass in an hour or so.

@edubb2491 Месяц назад

I would check the clouds to detect ANY forms of rain or thunderstorms in the Caribbean

@matthewbiddle147 11 месяцев назад

What about going to Caribbean during October..?

@JonathanBrindley Год назад

Sorry for asking, but maybe you have an answer. What’s cuba (varadero) like in July? We can’t really check the weather yet cause it’s still a little away. Online there is lots of warnings for rain but I’ve been to the Caribbean before mainly dominican republic (around june) and it sometimes showers but not all day every day.

@JessLaventure Год назад

It’ll definitely be hot and humid, but I don’t think it’ll be necessarily rainier… You may get thunderstorms or showers at the end of the afternoon, but those are normally pretty quick and the sun usually comes right back out afterwards. Hurricane season will have started already (it officially begins on June 1st) but the most active months are usually August/September/October. I’m sure you’ll have an amazing trip! :)

@Teeyyy01 2 года назад

Am i supposed to go to Cancun next week the 23-27th it is predicting a thunder storm all 4 of my days ……what’s your thoughts ?

@JessLaventure 2 года назад

Totally normal to get thunderstorms, especially at the end of the afternoon... When they happen, they’re usually pretty quick, and the sun and heat come back out after 30 min! And that’s IF they even happen... because a chance of thunderstorms is exactly that: a chance. It doesn’t mean it’ll happen. I say don’t worry about the weather forecast (except for hurricane watches of course), and enjoy your vacation!

@JessLaventure 2 года назад

It's not so much that it's misleading... Because there's often a chance of showers in the afternoon, you'll see that icon appear quite a bit on the app. But those late-afternoon showers are not enough to ruin your day, for sure ! :) That being said, keep in mind that we are currently in hurricane season. It's always a good idea to check the National Hurricane Center to stay up-to-date on the latest hurricane info. www.nhc.noaa.gov/?atlc So far, the Atlantic basin is looking pretty quiet. :) Enjoy your trip !
