A sirocco is a hot desert (dry) wind. Feels like what you get when you
open an oven door when it's been turned on high for a while.
While air conditioning is an option, it's a limited one. Panama has the
highest electric rate in the world. The electric bill is no fun at all
with the AC turned on all the time.
