Hi everyone,
Our country is facing some of the worst rainy seasons ever. In Golfito has been raining for over a week, without stopping. Today, in the news was presented a landslide in Escazu, destroyed homes and killed at the moment more than 25 people and the account continues to grow. The link below shows the Rio Grande de Terraba, near Palmar, grown in an incredible way. The neighbors say that this is the first time they see the river in this way.
The roads are closed in many parts of the country, domestic flights canceled. There is uncertainty about what might happen in the next few hours. In these three last days, it rained, which on average rains throughout November.
In the Canton de Golfito have been no reports of landslides, but there are fears in the hospital, because according to people who work there, the mountain is slowly crumbling.
I will try to keep everybody up to date.

David, I guess I am glad that I am not there, As you know we live on a slope and we are always concerned about slides. Keep in touch and good luck to all in Golfito

Hi Bill,
It keeps raining today and I heard on the news that the rain will continue for another week. A friend just called and said that the Bridge in Palmar moved 2 cm, that's scary. Here in Golfito rains, but not that hard, that's a relief. We haven't heard anything from Damian so I guess the mountain is calm so far.
We don't want more rain PLEASE!!
