Climate Chart of Managua, Nicaragua

Monthly data: Temperature °C, Rain (mm), Sunshine (h) · 2013–2023

Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperature reaches its high in April, at 29.5 °C, and its low in October, at 26.4 °C. These are monthly averages, not daytime maximum temperatures, so they describe the broader temperature pattern rather than the hottest point a visitor might encounter during a day. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 27.6 °C. This provides a compact overview of the year, but it is not a day-weighted annual average and does not show how temperatures fluctuate from one day to the next.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is lowest in January, at 0.23 mm/day, making it a conditional option for visitors who prioritise lower average rainfall. That monthly mean does not guarantee dry days or indicate how frequently rain occurs. The highest monthly mean daily rainfall occurs in October, at 10.49 mm/day; visitors planning around this average may want rain-ready clothing and flexible outdoor plans. The unweighted mean across calendar-month means is 3.48 mm/day. These figures are daily averages, not monthly rainfall totals.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine duration is highest in April, at 11.42 hours/day, and lowest in October, at 9.34 hours/day. The average across calendar-month means is 10.45 hours/day. These values can help with planning daylight outdoor activities, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not promise clear conditions on a particular date.

Best Travel Time Guide for Managua, Nicaragua: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights

For visitors prioritising cooler monthly averages, October is the relevant option: its monthly mean temperature is 26.4 °C. This is a monthly mean rather than a daytime high, so use it as broad planning context, not a guarantee of the temperature during outdoor sightseeing. If lower average rainfall is your priority, consider January, when mean daily rainfall is 0.23 mm/day. By contrast, October records the highest monthly mean daily rainfall, at 10.49 mm/day, so rain-ready layers and adaptable plans are sensible preparation. Neither average tells you whether it will rain on a specific day or how often rain occurs.

For daylight outdoor planning, mean daily sunshine duration peaks in April at 11.42 hours/day, while its low is in October at 9.34 hours/day. These figures can inform expectations, but sunshine duration is not day length and cannot establish the sky conditions for an individual visit.
