Climate overview
Temperature
The coolest monthly mean is 17.7 °C in January, while the warmest is 25.2 °C in September. These figures describe average temperatures for whole months, not daytime maximums, so they should not be read as the full range visitors will experience from day to day. The unweighted mean across the monthly means is 22.1 °C; it summarizes the calendar-month figures without weighting them by the number of days in each month.
Rain
Mean daily rainfall reaches its highest monthly value of 1.73 mm/day in April, and its lowest of 0.03 mm/day in February. These are daily averages for the months concerned, not monthly rainfall totals, and they do not show how often rain falls or guarantee dry weather in the lower-rainfall month. The unweighted mean across the monthly daily averages is 0.65 mm/day, offering a broad summary rather than a forecast for a particular visit.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine is highest at 11.29 hours/day in May and lowest at 10.20 hours/day in July. These values can help with planning around average sunshine availability, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not guarantee clear skies on a given day. The unweighted mean of the monthly sunshine averages is 10.73 hours/day.
