Costa Rica: A
Wet Rainy Season
Expected
The Instituto
Meteorológico
Nacional (IMN) -
Costa Rica's
national weather
service - is
predicting an
"intense" 2010
rainy season,
with lots and
lots of rain, in
contrast to the
light rainy
season of 2009.
The heavy rain
is also
attributed to an
increase in
hurricanes and
cyclones in the
Atlantic for
2010, of which
Costa Rica,
although may not
be directly hit,
will feel the
affects of most
of the
hurricanes.
El Nino's
disappearance is
also being
attributed to
the heavy rain
forecast for
this year.
According to the
IMN, the Central
Valley and the
Pacific coast
will receive
more than usual
this year. |
