Cold Spell Takes Josefinos By Surprise
While tens of thousands were soaking the sun and heat on the country's beaches, those who stayed behind in the Central Valley were caught by a surprise cold spell and scattered rain in many parts of the Valley.

The Instituto Meteorológico Nacional (IMN) - national weather service - said that cloud cover over the Central Valley was the cause of the cold nights, cool mornings and showers.

Looking south to the mountains of Escazú and Santa Ana, a grey ominous cloud cover was present each day from Thursday to Sunday, almost as if the "rainy" or winder season had begun.

The Zona Norte and parts of the Caribbean also experienced showers though the temperature did not fall too greatly, according to the IMN.

The weatherman says that the winds should die down in the coming days and temperatures will return to normal for the season.
