| Sleet or Hail ! The fact that it was raining a second afternoon in a row is amazing in February! But ICE is unheard of in the Central Valley of Costa Rica, at any time! (only at tops of a few high mountains) I increased the contrast of photo a little – all the white spots are bits of ice – sleet or hail. (cell phone photo) Ticos were trying to photograph something they had never seen before! It melted fast! Atenas, Costa Rica |
Okay, so you have had some strange weather in the states too! Weather seems to be out of the ordinary everywhere in the world now. And there are still people who don’t believe in climate change or global warming. Wow! Saturday and Sunday afternoon were the first two rains we have had in this calendar year, unusual even without the ice! It is Dry Season here! Shocked tourists?
I was eating a late lunch of fish at Colinas del Sol Hotel Restaurant near my house when it started raining with the first minute or so including ice. Above shot on concrete sidewalk outside restaurant.
¡Pura Vida!
5.2 Magnitude Earthquake Shakes Costa Rica This Monday Morning This was way down south where I will be in two weeks, near Puerto Jimenez and Corcovado National Park. We did have a smaller tremor in Atenas Saturday which strangely I did not feel but “heard!” Mejor clima del mundo? 🙂
