General Review

During this week we will continue with accelerated trade winds, a product of the influence of cold thrust #4 (EF#4), which will remain this Monday, high levels of atmospheric pressure to the north of the Caribbean Sea basin and the subsequent displacement of the thrust cold #5 (EF#5) between Wednesday and Friday.
In general, wind gusts between 30-40 km/h are expected towards the center and north of the country, with maximums of up to 80 km/h towards the mountains and north of Guanacaste. Between Wednesday and Friday, faster trade winds are expected due to the influence of EF#5, with gusts between 35-55 km/h towards the center and north of the country and maximums of up to 100 km/h in the mountains and north of Guanacaste.
This pattern of accelerated winds will favor the incursion and development of cloudiness in sectors of the Caribbean and Northern Zone throughout the week, being more significant between Wednesday and Friday due to the influence of EF#5. Part of the cloud cover may move to sectors of the eastern Central Valley, northern Guanacaste, as well as mountains surrounding sectors of the Caribbean and the Northern Zone. Therefore, rain and drizzle will continue in the Caribbean and Northern Zone, with the chance of occasional downpours of moderate to heavy intensity between Wednesday and Friday. In the rest of the country, the probability of rain is low.
