What sets Yajalon apart is that it's a coffee-growing town in the northern Chiapas highlands. What it shares with the rest of Chiapas is a climate driven by Pacific hurricane influence combined with the broader Central American tropical rainfall regime.
Highland flash flooding and lowland tropical storm exposure shows up often enough in this part of Chiapas that it's built into how people in Yajalon think about the weather, not treated as a rare event.

For the remainder of the year, Yajalon sees noticeably calmer weather, in keeping with the broader Chiapas pattern.
