Global weather services were predicting the most destructive El Niño rains ever recorded--even worse than the 1997-1998 El Niño, which flooded homes and farms and actually killed a large number of heirloom Nacional cacao trees across the region. All of us in coastal Ecuador were expecting the worst. But what ended up happening defied all predictions.
