Our HotSpot Charts indicate SSTs have been exceeding the HotSpot threshold off 
Belize and Hondouras for the past week -- beginning Sep 13th.  This would 
indicate that the potential for bleaching exists in that area of the western
Caribbean.

For those with Netscape animation capability you can view the last 4 months
of twice-weekly HotSpot Charts on our temporary NOAA/NESDIS/ORAD HomePage:

 [2] Coral Reef Bleaching

The loop is updated every week.
