 Chances have increased to 60% through 5 days that a Tropical Depression could form late this week or this weekend when that tropical wave in the eastern Caribbean reaches the central or western Caribbean Sea. 



 Tropical Storm Eta is stationary just north of the Yucatan channel 135 mi NE of Cabo Catoche, Q Roo (which is in our municipality, about 30 miles north, at the northern tip of the Peninsula), with winds of 50 mph. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 60 miles from the center. Some areas of Cuba remain under Tropical Storm Watch. Little overall motion is forecast today, with a slow northward motion expected tonight through Thursday, moving farther away.

 


 



Today Isla Mujeres continues to report 223 positives with 20 deaths, and now 188 are recovered.
The state geoportal continues to report one active case in colonia Salina Chica.
The national map for 11/9 reports 146 suspicious and 110 negative. Quintana Roo is now Yellow again of the national epidemiological light. (NOTE--It is the STATE light that determines what is open at what capacity, which is divided into two zones & we've been Yellow on that since Sept. 7.)

Turtles continue hatching out at the Tortugranja in November

The mamas nest along the eastern beaches from May thru October. Tortugranja staff and volunteers gather the eggs and incubate them in the sand in a pen outside the facility. Three species nest annually in Isla Mujeres, Greens, Loggerheads, and Hawksbills.  Photos of nest hatching out at MaraVilla Caribe Bed & Beach, that was missed by the Tortugranja patrols, by Bruce.
