What the numbers say

August is the driest month, with rain on 22% of days and daytime highs near 27.5°C (82°F). November is the wettest, at 43%. Temperature swings hard across the year — 24.3°C between August (27.5°C / 82°F) and January (3.2°C / 38°F) — so packing for the wrong month is the main risk. The record rules out too cold in Dec–Feb.
