... about TIME

Most weather info is presented in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time),
also known as GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) or represented simply with a "z" for Zulu.
To figure out what time a photo was made, use the following table:


Atlantic Std/Eastern Daylight
   subtract 4 hours from UTC
Eastern Std/Central Daylight 
   subtract 5 hours from UTC
Central Std/Mountain Daylight 
   subtract 6 hours from UTC
Mountain Std/Pacific Daylight 
   subtract 7 hours from UTC
Pacific Standard 
   subtract 8 hours from UTC

If you want to get the current, accurate time in both your time zone and UTC,
try this nifty link to a java version of the NIST Atomic Clock

Time zone converter - what time is it in (you choose)?

Caribbean weather links and tropical weather information on tropical depressions, tropical storms, and hurricanes, covered in depth, and updated frequently.  WeatherCarib was born in 1998, with an emphasis on tropical weather links for the Caribbean and tropical Atlantic all the way to Africa.  Since 2001, produced in the beautiful sailing charter and bareboat capital of the world, The British Virgin Islands, or BVI, which include Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, Anegada, Norman Island, Peter Island, Cooper Island, Necker Island, Guana Island, Great Camanoe, and many more.  Now focused on Eastern Caribbean - the Lesser Antilles, Leeward Islands, and Windward Islands, including Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Anguilla, St. Martin, St. Barts, St. Kitts, Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda, Montserrat, Guadeloupe, Dominica, Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, Venezuela, Aruba, Bonaire, & Curacao.
