Eyes on Costa Rica and Weather Records - April 2019

During March, visits to this blog were received from the following countries:


The following is a summary of the weather for the month:


Despite a fair amount of threatening clouds on some days, the dry season continued through April. The most noteworthy observation was the absence of rain in our region compared to the same period last year when it rained on 11 separate days for a total of about 2.4 inches. This year, the amount was almost negligible (0.01 inches on one day as indicated above).

In contrast, friends living relatively far south on the Pacific coast reported that they had a number of inches of rain in April. Sometimes, when the skies are clear in our region, we can see dramatic displays of nighttime lightning and illuminated clouds in their direction.
