your future  
Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai             email weathercarib 

The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2Th 2:9-12 ESV
Time grows short! Fall on your knees and pray to God, that you may accept the Truth of Jesus the Christ.
Turn your life over to Him TODAY, and be included in the Rapture. Do not be LEFT BEHIND!!

... about TIME

Most weather info is presented in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time),
also known as GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) or represented simply with a "z" for Zulu.
To figure out what time a photo was made, use the following table:


Atlantic Std/Eastern Daylight
   subtract 4 hours from UTC
Eastern Std/Central Daylight 
   subtract 5 hours from UTC
Central Std/Mountain Daylight 
   subtract 6 hours from UTC
Mountain Std/Pacific Daylight 
   subtract 7 hours from UTC
Pacific Standard 
   subtract 8 hours from UTC

If you want to get the current, accurate time in both your time zone and UTC,
try this nifty link to a java version of the NIST Atomic Clock

Time zone converter - what time is it in (you choose)?
