Belize All Clear As Rina Retreats
posted (October 26, 2011)
And while politics is making headlines tonight - if Hurricane Rina hadn't take a northwest track early this morning, that storm would be the headline.

Very thankfully, though, Rina did exactly as the forecasters said she would: this morning between three and 6:00 am, she started jogging northwest; she's continued in that direction - and tonight, an all-clear has been declared for Belize as the storm poses no threat to this country.

The all clear was given at 4:00 pm - so things return to normal - school will be held countrywide as usual tomorrow.

And at 6:00 pm today, Rina was down to a category one storm, about 143 miles south southeast of Corozal town, moving northwest at six miles per hour.

The storm is still expected to making a further northward turn.
