In the period April to September, almost every day the temperature reaches the tropical thirty degrees limit. During winter months the daytime temperatures average drops slightly below 30°C.
In summer it is considerably wetter than in the winter. The precipitation that falls out usually comes in the form of heavy storms that often disappear just as fast as they came. There is a risk of hurricanes and tropical storms in the period June till November. The risk is the highest in August, September and October. Sometimes such hurricanes causes considerable damage. Fortunately, the chances of this are not as great as it seems, but those who don't want to take any chances should avoid these months.
