Pilgrimage to Cartago to coincide with unstable weather week due to tropical wave

Pilgrims heading to Cartago and those planning outdoor activities in Costa Rica should prepare for a week of unsettled weather. The National Meteorological Institute (IMN) has issued a forecast predicting increased rainfall across the country, influenced by several atmospheric phenomena, notably tropical wave number 25.

The IMN's outlook indicates that various regions will experience higher probabilities of rain. This forecast is particularly relevant for individuals participating in the traditional "romería" (pilgrimage) to Cartago, a significant religious and cultural event.

Authorities are urging the public to stay informed by regularly checking the IMN's detailed weather reports. This will help individuals identify specific areas likely to receive the most precipitation and plan their activities accordingly to avoid disruptions or potential hazards associated with heavy rain.
