There are also a lot of good people to meet to get a firsthand honest opinion of what to expect and what not to expect.\u00a0 There are also some good properties to see that are quickly becoming harder to find as this season has brought us a lot of serious buyers.\u00a0\u00a0 Not just those looking for second homes, but those who have clearly had enough with dealing with life back home in the US and Europe and are looking for greener pastures and an easier way of life and living.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">I hope that I can show you \u201cWhy Panama\u201d and \u201cWhy Chiriqui\u201d, so please allow me the privilege of seeing through your eyes, the reason again and again of why I chose this path and live here in Boquete.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For those of you weather buffs and those of you who are always asking me about the weather, follow it on Lyod Cripe&#8217;s Boquete Weather blog.\u00a0 Here is his March weather notice and contact information.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"880\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"438\">April 3, 2012<\/td>\n<td width=\"436\">\n<div>No. 49<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h1>March 2012<\/h1>\n<p>I posted the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boqueteweather.com\/climate\/data_annual.htm\" target=\"_blank\">March weather data<\/a> for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boqueteweather.com\/palmira2.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Palmira Weather Station<\/a> today. We had 2.6 inches of rain recorded for the month of March here  at the  Palmira Station. Terry Zach in El Santuario reports 10.15 inches  of rain. Steve Sarner in Jaramillo Arriba reports 4.33 inches. Sela  Burkholder in Jaramillo Abajo reports 2.58 inches.  Craig Bennett in Los  Naranjos reports 5.79 inches.

Many were asking if the winds would  ever go away. For a while, I thought they wouldn&#8217;t  but the last week  of March they started to subside. We also started to see more clouds and  moisture building up in the air. Some thunderstorm activity started  building up in the afternoons in the David area. As I am writing this  update, we started to get some rain here in Palmira this afternoon. The  station at 3:00PM is reading a total of 1.22 inches of rain. It is much  welcomed. The plants should begin to smile and the birds have been  singing.<\/p>\n<p>A look at the current Infrared Satellite image clearly shows a build-up of moisture over our area:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ssd.noaa.gov\/goes\/east\/watl\/avn-l.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.boqueteweather.com\/watchers\/images\/avn-l_040312.jpg\" alt=\"Infrared Sattelite Image\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Unifed Surface Analysis Chart shows the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boqueteweather.com\/climate_article.htm#itcz\" target=\"_blank\">ITCZ<\/a> (candy cane graphic line) spaning both sides of our region. The month  of April is usually a gradual transition into the rainy season which is  daily becoming more evident. We will be into the rainy season in full  force in the month of May. This means a lot less wind but a lot more  moisture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.opc.ncep.noaa.gov\/index.shtml\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.boqueteweather.com\/watchers\/images\/ITCZ.jpg\" alt=\"Current ITCZ\" width=\"803\" height=\"307\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.srh.noaa.gov\/jetstream\/\/tropics\/enso.htm\" target=\"_blank\">ENSO<\/a> is still in a  La Ni\u00f1a condition but is weakening and it is expected to  be in a neutral condition by the end of April 2012.

It is  time to nest and feed those new chicks with the rich supply of insects  that develop with the rain. We are hearing and seeing a lot more birds  on our farm. A Mountain Elaenia built a nest near our house that we are  watching. Here is a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boquetebirders.org\/gallery\/040112\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">link to a few photos<\/a> of her nest building and first egg. All kinds of things happen in the rain forests with the beginning of the rainy season.<\/p>\n<p>Time to bring out those umbrellas and check them out. If it is in bad repair, the cheapskates can patch them with <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Duct_tape\" target=\"_blank\">duct tape<\/a> or cover them with a big garbage bag to get by.
