Eyes on Costa Rica and Weather Records - January 2025

Click on images to enlarge.

During January, 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 137. Of this number, 13 are non-independent jurisdictions - for example, Guam which is an unincorporated territory of the United States and from which 2 visits have been received.

The following is a summary of the weather for January in the area where we live:


January was the second month of our so-called "dry season". However, there was an unusual amount of cloud cover on many days resulting in lower daytime high temperatures and slightly higher overnight low temperatures (the clouds tending to keep heat in during the night).

On many days, the cloud cover did not produce any rain but on the 7 days that it did it produced more than three times the amount we encountered in any previous January during our time in San Roque de Grecia.

Information on current and recent weather conditions, climate change and more in various parts of Costa Rica can be obtained from the website of IMN: Instituto Meteorológico Nacional de Costa Rica (Spanish) or National Institute of Meteorology (English). IMN also has a Facebook page which may be of interest.
