Miches climate - a reason to plan your trip now
What the weather will be like at a specific time of the year in the Caribbean should bear the least on your choice of time to visit. Focus more on whether you need to flee a specially hot summer or a specially cold winter. Weather in the Dominican Republic varies very slightly year round. December-April: These are the cooler months, when the temperature may descend to 18C (66F) on February mornings. Noon time temperatures on those same days are usually up to 28C (83F). Thus, you may want to bring a jacket or light sweater if you are traveling to the DR at that time of the year. During these months, expect windy evenings along the East Coast/Punta Cana area. March-April: Throughout the country are the breezy months, time for flying kites. In fact, kites are sold on major thoroughfares during Easter holiday time. May-June: Is historically the wettest time of the year. But the El Nio and La Nia phenomenoms have altered these patterns. The most common weather forecast nationwide continues to be partly cloudy or partly sunny with a chance of a short shower. Note it is more likely to rain in the afternoons than in the mornings. August-September: This is the peak of the hurricane season (June 1-30 November) for the Caribbean. Caribbean hurricanes in June and July are rare because the waters are not warm enough to generate the appropriate conditions for these to develop. August and September are also the two hottest months of the year, with temperatures peaking at 32-34C (90-94F). October-November: Like May-June, these used to be the wettest months of the year, but weather patterns have shifted. Rainstorms in the Caribbean are not like rainstorms in northern latitudes. In the Caribbean, they usually last less than five minutes and then the sun shines again. While many Dominican pedestrians have their umbrellas, Dominicans do not own raincoats. The weather changes only slightly from season to season in the DR. Average year round temperature on the coasts ranges from 25-34C (77-93F). Chillier temperatures can be found in the mountain peaks, with the coldest in the Cordillera Central mountain range (Valle Nuevo and Pico Duarte), where temperatures below freezing point have been registered. But even in the mountain cities, like Jarabacoa and Constanza, the average temperature ranges from 18-28C (66-84F). Weather on the south coast is warmer (1 or 2 degrees C), than on the north and northeastern coasts. It can get windy in Punta Cana-Bavaro area. Of course if you will be visiting a mountain area, bring a warm sweater.
