Eyes on Costa Rica and Weather Records - March 2024

Click on images to enlarge.

During March, visits to this blog were received from the following 13 countries:


Each country is followed in brackets by the total number of visits received since records first started to be kept in November 2012.

From the time I started to keep track, the total number of countries and non-independent jurisdictions from which visits have been received remains at 136. Of this number, 13 are non-independent jurisdictions - e.g. Martinique (an Overseas Department and Region of France) from which 1 visit has been received.
