Temperature

All year long the average midday temperature in Curacao is approximately 86° F (30° C). There is little variance in the seasons because of the island's proximity to the equator. December usually feels a bit cooler (low 80's F / 27° C), with the hottest month being September. This is mostly because the ever cooling trade winds tend to die down in hurricane season.

Rainfall

Curacao is a relatively dry island. Traditionally most rainfall was limited to the rainy season from November through February, but due to the changes in the global climate the rainy season is no longer restricted to those months. The good news is that when it rains on Curacao, this is mostly between 3.00 am and 6.00 am. Also during the day, rain showers usually do not last longer then 20 minutes.

Hurricanes

While the official hurricane season in the Caribbean is between June 1st and November 30th, it does not effect Curacao like the other Caribbean islands. Due to its location in the South of the Caribbean the island is safely located below the hurricane belt.
