Wow, glad to hear it was brief.

We were blessed with the weather while there last week. Arrived May 4th and just got back last night.

We dove Cozumel the 9th, 10th and 11th. Everything was great and I truly feel very lucky given the forecast of rain three of those days.

I am really going to miss the diving there in Cozumel! Hope to be back next year.

Glad you had a good trip and enjoyed Cozumel.

Keep in mind that this wild storm did not last all day by any means. As I always say...it lasted all of 45 minutes to an hour. The rest of the day was gorgeous...with scattered clouds.

A forecast of rain doesn't mean anything.
 
I was in Cozumel May 5-12. Our flight back to Toronto left on May 12th at 8:45pm so we all were in the airport when the storm hit. As we drove to the airport through town all you could see in the Western skies was darkness and lightening. We just made it into the airport when the winds and rain started. Looking out onto the runway, you could not even see the trees/bushes just on the other side of the runway. Storm lasted maybe about an hour - I didn't time it. We aslo got a few power outages at the airport but they last only seconds.

On the good side, our plane landed no problem, dropped off passengers then loaded us on for a safe and on-time trip back home to Toronto. The weather the entire week was perfect and so was the diving. To be honest, Cozumel did need a little rain fall but I hope as I write this that the weather is again perfect for all those on the island right now!!!!
