Temperatures will start in the high 70s and rise to the low/mid 80s before staying relatively steady, with a east-northeasterly wind blowing from dawn to dusk. Wave action will be moderate, and a falling tide during the morning will turn to a rising tide in the afternoon, which will be a great time to be in the water. The big event going on this weekend will be the [Las Catalinas TRI](https://www.lascatalinascr.com/events/tri), for which the preparations can already be seen around town (like the finish line, which is already under construction). It's one of the year's most exciting events, featuring visitors and competitors from around the world, and starts Saturday afternoon at 6am. The festivities have started already this week, with some [race camps in town](https://race-quest.com/), dinners going on Friday night, and competitors making their way here to stay for the race. Expect to see plenty going as the TRI comes to life in the next few days. ## See related posts ## [Sunday, August 11th, 2019.](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-11th-2019) [In this Daily: Día de la Madre (Costa Rican Mother’s Day) and the Week Ahead](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-11th-2019) [Read more](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-11th-2019) ## [Monday, November 18th, 2019.](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-november-18th-2019) [In this Daily: The Pura Vida Ride Paddle Battle and the Intrepid Challenge](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-november-18th-2019) [Read more](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-november-18th-2019) ## [Wednesday, August 28th, 2019.](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-28th-2019) [In this Daily: A Look at the National Parks of Costa Rica](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-28th-2019) [Read more](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-august-28th-2019) ## [Monday, September 23rd, 2019.](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-september-23rd-2019) [In this Daily: The Monkeys of Guanacaste](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-september-23rd-2019) [Read more](https://thedaily.lascatalinascr.com/daily-september-23rd-2019) #### Subscribe to The Blog, The Daily, The Newsletter, and more Additionally you will receive our occasional newsletter.
