What the numbers say

October is the driest month, with rain on 26% of days and daytime highs near 18.8°C (66°F). June is the wettest, at 43%. Temperature swings hard across the year — 26.8°C between August (30.6°C / 87°F) and January (3.8°C / 39°F) — so packing for the wrong month is the main risk. The record rules out too cold in Dec–Jan.
