What the numbers say

June is the driest month, with rain on 6% of days and daytime highs near 14.0°C (57°F). January is the wettest, at 71%. Temperature barely moves all year — just 2.7°C between the warmest and coolest months — so rainfall, not heat, decides when to go. The record rules out too wet in Dec–Feb.
