Similarly to many other countries in Central America, Costa Rica has been affected by the intense rainfall brought by Tropical Depression 12-E (TD 12-E). This weather front, combined with the effects of previous precipitations and the saturation of soils since early October, has caused severe damages in the Western and Southern regions of Costa Rica, (Valle Central, Pac?fico Sur, Pac?fico Central, Huetar Norte, Huetar Atl?ntica) particularly in the provinces of Guanacaste and Puntarenas where a state of yellow alert was declared by the government on 8 October.
