Costa Rica Weather Radar

Not to be tacky, But I live in the US and have a home in CR and the weather in CR is always great whatever it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Not how sure how accurate this site is, but it has lots of info.

weather.com, the Weather channels site has radar for CR. There are also a lot of other sites that have a lot of comprehensive weather info for CR, such as MSN, NOAA, etc. If you do a search of weather radar for Costa Rica, it will bring up quite a few sites.

BECAUSE of the lack of high tech regional weather stations in Costa Rica I have found that what many folks are calling “radar” is actually satellite photos which often do not tell you much. I use the weather at costarica.com. They have regional pages by city.

I have found that the weather forecasts are very general and used for large areas. As those of us familiar with Costa Rica know there are many micro climates and what it true on the other side of the hill (or higher or lower) is not true for you.
There are wonderful small (personal) automated weather stations that can be setup and hooked to the Internet. If you have one of these at your home in Costa Rica (and left it running with your Internet connection) you could check the weather from anywhere in the world. There are also web sites that collect and display statistics from this type of small weather station. It has been a while since I researched this so I will not list one at this time.

Often you need to know just HOW MUCH rain fell on your property in a given time to make a judgment as to if the road will need fixing when you get there or if the bridge might be washed out. . . Everyone had different needs from their weather report. A personal weather station MIGHT answer those needs.
