Climate of Cuba

Cuba is a country on the other side the globe, which is very interesting to visit for absolutely all reasons. And in order to check how our antipodes “walk on their heads” there. And in order to find out how communism, which we have stopped building, is being built there. And for many more other reasons. And when you go so far from home, you need to know about the peculiarities of the weather of the host country, so as not to miscalculate with luggage - you don’t take too much, but you won’t be left without the necessary. What features of weather and climate distinguish Cuba from other countries of the world?

Climate and its determining influence on the weather of the country

It is enough to look at the globe, and it immediately becomes clear that Cuba is where it is hot and, probably, humid. The climate of the large island state is tropical trade winds. Common features of such a climate are high average annual air temperatures, but not excessive. The same can be said about humidity. Yes, it is relatively high, but thanks to the trade winds, it is also not excessive.

The average annual temperature of daytime air over the island of Cuba is 25.5 degrees Celsius. The location in the northern hemisphere determines the familiar distribution of the seasons. Calendar winter falls on the usual months from December to February. The coldest month is January, when the air temperature averages +22…+23 degrees. In the hottest period of the year, which falls on August, it is not very hot here - about +27 ... +28 degrees. However, high humidity somewhat exacerbates the sensations, and these, by desert continental standards, are not very high degrees perceived a little more difficult than in a drier climate.

Seasons in Cuba and comfort of rest

As is traditionally the case in tropical climate, two seasons are clearly distinguished here - dry, which lasts from October to April, and rainy, respectively, from May to September. Precipitation is unevenly distributed between the seasons, three-quarters of it falls on the rainy season and the remaining 25% falls on the ground in the dry season. During the rainy season, heavy rains are frequent over the island and average annual quantity is 1400 mm. Although dryer years are possible.

The human body is not very comfortable with such a combination as high temperature and high humidity. Therefore, resting in Cuba in the dry season is more comfortable than in the rainy season. However, the proximity of oceanic masses in Cuba conceals and alleviates this inconvenience even during the rainy season. The breeze constantly blowing from the sea takes away the heat during the day and even brings coolness in the evening and at night. Tropical winds blow here with enviable constancy, regardless of the season. And so the trees on the coast are all curved in the same direction with the same angle tilt. The amount of precipitation is always higher at the foot of the mountains located in the depths of the island of Cuba than on the coast. This should be taken into account when planning your trips to the sights of the country.

In the period from mid-June to November, tropical cyclones can sweep over Cuba, which originate in the Lesser Antilles, as well as in the western Caribbean Sea and gradually drift towards American Florida. In summer and early autumn, typhoons can be so strong that they cause considerable damage to the country - to the population and economy.

Flora and fauna of Cuba as a result climatic features countries

The island is very small and rather uniform in relief, and the climate has only two seasons. Therefore, vegetable and animal world its not as interesting and personable. In its formation, typhoons that come with rather stubborn constancy play a significant role. Forests, through the efforts of man and his activities, have been cut down on most of the island, and now occupy no more than ten percent of its territory, mainly in mountainous areas. Much more interesting and diverse animal and vegetable world coastal waters Cuba. Therefore, it is interesting to go diving and snorkeling here. A large number of valuable commercial fish makes fishing especially interesting. Good, weather allow you to devote yourself to your favorite pastime in any season. After all, the water temperature even in the "cold" January is +24 degrees Celsius.
