Wind

Does Boquete have much wind and if so, what seasons?

I know that this is off this topic, but did you get back into Panama on Monday and what happened at the border?

A ninger who doesn't post much anymore (for very understandable reasons) once put it very aptly:

"The wind stops when the rain starts and the rain stops when the wind starts"

Serious?

So you didn't move away from Protrollilos as you said a few days ago?

Can be incredible from Jan - Mar (maybe Apr) BUT it depends on where you are. The town Boquete is relatively small but the areas to live within a small distance are very diverse - microclimates as they are called.

Hope this helps and wasn't long ago that I couldn't contain the winds while getting into our large truck - knee slammed in the door! I was fine but hope that gives you an idea.
