Late July and early August we expect a couple of weeks of something called “veranillo” or little summer,  characterized by noticeably reduced rainfall. However, keep your umbrella at reach since Costa Rica is a tropical country after all, that means we can expect sudden rainfall at any time.   Generally, the mornings are bright, crisp, and sunny, perfect for outdoor activities. Afternoons often bring a sprinkling of rain for an hour or two, extending lunch slightly, since it’s a great time to have a coffee and watch the clouds roll by. The showers that we have received so far have already revitalized the surrounding tropical dry forest in the area with splendid shades of green.    Winds have been keeping things feeling cooler, although temperatures linger in the low 30s Celsius or 90s Fahrenheit. Bird migration patterns are more observable during the green season as well.   Overall, this is a time to enjoy and relax. We highly recommend you set time to enjoy the majestic sunsets of this season! Rainy afternoon only means more colors in the sky.   **![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/4YOcC25nYABPjTqnaaQJYKg4VAFOqvNh1YjEj_KU_rxW6Y301CtOlANfPKjf_klAQIdN6H2kseQarBRp1HcdHqK1wWpUZRCVjgT07pMuTFIroIxk28UOJsGrpFRp82CzXwF3SFrE74VHARI7bNECwPQ)** ![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/QlzCb_3O9z-M2pxazgH02Qgmzvc4FzhhBoKwX9mHjOGSpcfn-p6fJ1a2Sxncsk_Usm27EZBD5GYmrcdD7_log3CuwhjkSVJpYYj5PuJvJpCVmf8p0whszCwlQuToc3KvpBgLw6ayirkpwTVplT6OzxM) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/F2KZAdhnON2AYYRWU6HuxQjGwjSzcE0W5C6iooHnoNQh-M9MiDsY2-N4kFwdJgA2sFzNdyM6HcJ8zyYASN_PpOif_Egg58fzP2pfvHp5RTzFOmM9WCeAMNWGaiuF08PGc1c6vPdC3zXlxWZh417ezto) ## 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.
