Rainy season in Panama

Many people shudder when they hear about rainy season in Panama. It is wet, long, intense and often unbelievable to first timers. That said I love it almost as much as I love the sunny season.

Panama After Hours has probably the best description of they joys of rainy season in Panama that I have seen in Brave enough to run wild

The rain gets heavier . It runs off roofs pounding sidewalks with mini waterfalls. Only half-naked children are brave enough to run wild. The rest of us huddle together under eves, or hide in doorways, shops and Internet cafes. Lightning and thunder crackles overhead. So loud it makes you think you’ve fallen off the edge of the world. Sewer drains, clogged with trash, back up and flood the streets. Small lakes form. There is nothing to do in these moments but wait. And order another drink.
