We are considering Bouquete. I’m concerned about the rainy season there. I looked at the weather this week,and the rain is terrible from morning through night day,after day. I know it’s the rainy season but that is not something that has been described in the write ups. Your thoughts please. Thank you!

Myrna. The online weather apps are not accurate. I live in Boquete. It’s a beautiful blue sky sunshine day today. About 2 or 3, it will cloud up. and it may (or may not) rain about 4pm.
It does not rain every day. It does not rain all day long
