The climate is, for the most part, very predictable. The high every day is 88 to 90F. The lows are 75 to 78F. The only change is whether or not it rains. There are two rainy seasons; however, that does not mean it rains all day long during those seasons. The main rainy season is in the winter. The other is late spring to early summer. There are roughly 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night/darkness each day. - Nov 2013
