October marks the beginning of cool northern breezes bringing heavy rains across Belize. The "northers" are storms brought about by these winds that generally stay over the Maya Mountains and never last for more than a few days. Vacationers should not be deterred by these storms as the sky clears quickly and sunshine is never far behind.
