What happens when it rains in Tulum?

Since the Yucatán peninsula is flat, there are no mountains to withhold the clouds, so when a storm arrives the winds from the ocean will most likely blow the clouds away into the jungle and rain does not last long. Rainfall is usually short and intense, followed by sunshine and breathtaking sunsets.
