What is the weather in san jose, costa rica first week of july?

Question

I am going to Costa Rica (San Jose) tomorrow for 8 days. Can some one please please tell me what kind of weather to expect. rain, temperature, etc. will mosquitos be a problem there?

Answer 1

It is raining as we speak.  It is June 27, 2008.  It began raining at around 12:30 pm and it will probably continue into the late afternoon, early evening.   During this time of year, the rain usually lets up between 5 and 7 pm.

The morning was warm and sunny.  It was around 80 degrees Fahrenheit.  You can expect temperatures in the 80's range throughout your stay in July.  If you go to the Caribbean or Pacific coasts, you can expect it to be warmer.  It is also very humid in the Caribbean.

As for mosquitoes, bring your Off.  Not only are there mosquitoes prevalent when you leave the cities, dengue is a concern, but Off usually does the trick.

How do I know, I live here?  When I go to the coast, especially where there is a high incidence of dengue, I take Off and a gel called Mosquitol.  It smells horrible, but the mosquitoes stay away.  I hope that helps.  For more information, you can look through the website http://www.ticosland.com.

Answer 2

Sunny days, beautiful afternoons and cold nights!!!

Mosquitos won't be a problem but u can bring an off to be safe!

Answer 3

While I can't speak to the mosquitos (I don't recall them being terrible the last time I visited during the rainy season, and if you don't plan to leave the city you will most likely not deal with many bugs),  I have been checking the weather as we are heading there in a week ourselves.  The highs are currently around 80 and, as it is the 'green season,' there is a chance of showers/storms every afternoon.  My experience has been that these storms last about an hour or so in the afternoon and then blow over, so you can duck in someplace for a drink and wait it out.  Have fun!

Answer 4

Rain, Rain, Rain and more Rain... Maybe sun in the mornings... No Mosquitos

Answer 5

In San Jose, I dont see any mosquitos, unless you are out on the beach where it has been raining.

The weather today is actually overcasted, and I think its going ot be like this all day. The temperature is round 24 degrees celsus. Its cool, not cold not hot. It usually rains in the afternoon. And you might even have some sunny days. There are blue skies with scattered clouds.

Answer 6

In San Jose, mosquitos are not a problem, but bring bug spray if u go like to the beach, rainforest, hiking, just in case.

usually it rains a few hours mid-day or later each day, but only lighlty. The mornings are beautiful, so get up early!! The weather now is nice, not too hot, but carry a light jacket, cus you could get cold, I get cold easily, but some people dont think its cold at all,

even though its not hot, carry a hat and sunglasses, cus the sun is bright!
