Tropical Storm Iota has formed off the coats of Nicaragua and is headed for the Central American Isthmus. It could be a category two storm at landfall in either Nicaragua or Honduras and the storm spells serious trouble for Belize.
We spoke to the MET office about TS Iota's path earlier today:
Tonight, Iota is about 335 miles Southeast of KINGSTON JAMAICA with MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS of 40 miles per hour and moving west south west AT 3 miles per hour. On the forecast track, Iota will move across the central Caribbean Sea during the next day or so, and approach the coasts of Nicaragua and northeastern Honduras late Sunday and Monday."
