Beautiful day today. Perhaps it was all just a marketing stunt for next week's Hurricane Awareness Week? http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/HAW2/english/intro.shtml

Here's the morning satellite shot...

Cloudy today, almost no wind, water flat as a lake both inside & outside the reef.

Mosquito's are hungry

What a difference a day makes.

South Ambergris Caye Neighborhood Watch (SACNW) posted this tip on FB. (Am sure many of you are already familiar with this, but thought I'd share it anyway!)

Attention! If you have standing water in and around your property pour a little (depending on the size of the puddle 1/2 cup to a cup) vegetable oil on it. It will create a film on top of the water and stop the mosquito larva from being able to breathe and they will die. You can find inexpensive oil in some of the supermarkets in town. This will break the cycle.

Marty, I knew that statement would trigger a response.

What you do, if the whole are (DFC) has standing water all over?

Will you get the Oil by Gallons and send the bill to Town Board?

The locals are just ignore it and this is for sure the wrong solution.

You can pitch in and try to solve the problem or you can just post negative comments.

how is the weather today?
