\nlist). The station distribution covers the relevant intraseasonal regimes of precipitation (Amador
\n1998; Magaña et al. 1999; Amador et al. 2016a,b), wind (Amador 2008), and temperature (Hidalgo
\net al. 2019) on the Caribbean and Pacific slopes of Central America (CA). Precipitation and temperature records for the stations analyzed and regional wind were provided either by CA National
\nWeather Services (CA-NWS), NOAA, or the University of Costa Rica. Anomalies are reported using
\na 1981–2010 base period and were calculated using CA-NWS data. The methodologies used for all
\nvariables can be found in Amador et al. (2011).enGeographyCartographyarticle
