    A Geographic Shield

    No hurricane has ever made landfall
    in Panama. Not once. Not ever.

    At 7–9 degrees north latitude, Panama sits below the threshold where hurricanes can form. The Coriolis effect is too weak to generate rotating wind systems at this proximity to the equator — and the cool eastern Pacific stabilizes the atmosphere on Panama's Pacific coast. The country that built the world's most critical waterway was chosen in part because of this climatic permanence. While Florida, the Gulf Coast, and the Caribbean islands contend with catastrophic storms year after year, Panama watches the weather on the news.
