It looks like it is going to rain for 10 days on St. Thomas according to the weather channel. Is anyone on St. John and is it raining there? We will be there in 6 days.

Completely disgregard the weather channel. They put rain in the forecast every day just to cover themselves. There might be a daily shower that pops up, but nothing to sweat.

I was worried about rain and I just got back last night.

It was 30% chance everyday and the only time in rained was about 7:00 AM in the morning. It moved right off.

To set your mind at ease, take a look at these webcams a few times a day to see what the weather is actually doing (both in St. Thomas, but it's close enough to St. John to be accurate there, too!). It's almost always bright and sunny 🙂
