A Personal Note from Sherri "Brrrrr!!!"
Sherri Davis - CozumelInsider Owner/OperatorI’ve been waiting now for about a week for a really bright, hot sunny day to come along and inspire me to write about our gorgeous Cozumel weather this time of year. And I’m still waiting! I don’t know what has Mother Nature ticked off these days but we’ve just had some real cold snaps ever since New Year’s Eve. In fact, I believe that January 7 was actually one of the coldest days ever recorded here in Cozumel at 13C (around 55F).

OK, I admit, everything is relative so most all the tourist here are, of course, still wearing shorts and swimsuits and sunning themselves. But I’ve been walking around dazed and confused from the cold wearing my leggings, long sleeve tops and sox! As I tie up my teny’s in the mornings now, inside my shoes my toes are like, “Wait, what is this?? We want to be FREE!” And as you can see with the image, even the webcam hasn’t escaped the effects of the nortes! The wind has blown it crooked and the lens has literally stayed covered in salt these past days! I’ll fix it soon for ya but dang….it’s just been too cold to fool with it!

I realize all you folks waaaay farther north have really had some cold weather but I thought it might make you feel better knowing that it’s just cold all over the place right now ~ even waaay down here in the tropics! The good news for us here in Cozumel is that any cold snap is really short-lived compared to everywhere else! So go ahead and plan a quick trip down here if you can just to escape the cold weather for a few days! We’ll be waiting for you ~ all bundled up in our parkas! ;-)
