Climate Guide for June

 June is relatively dry, any precipitation is usually short-lived and light in nature. In most cases it shouldn’t disrupt outdoor activities to any great extent. The diurnal pattern shows a clear preference of rain during the pre-dawn hours with lowest probability of rain in the afternoons.
The Southeast Trades is usually well established and gets quite windy with choppy seas particularly towards the end of the month. Ideal conditions for windsurfing and sailing as the winds are pretty steady.

It’s also getting cooler as the islands are bathed in the southeast winds originating over the cool oceans of the south.
