One aspect of a dry season that hadn't entirely arrived

The most salient feature of Panama's dry season is that the rains stop, and on that count it has been late arriving. But there are other indicators, too. The Pacific side gets smooth as glass, as it was as the sun came up over Panama on a January day which featured afternoon rain. On the other hand, the prevailing winds out of the north make the Caribbean Sea choppy and unsuitable for snorkeling and scuba diving but at places good for surfing.
