Where the figures come from
The numbers below are the NASA POWER climatology for 1991–2020 at the coordinate 11.95 N, 66.67 W, next to Gran Roque. They are long-term monthly averages from satellite and model data for a grid cell, not readings from a weather station on the islands, so treat them as a guide to the pattern of the year rather than a forecast.

Dry and rainy months
February and March have the lowest average rainfall of the year, and January, April and December are also below 2 mm per day. From June to November the average is above 2.8 mm per day, with August the wettest month. Even in the rainy months the daily averages are low: showers rather than days of rain, but a wetter sky than in the first quarter.
Temperature and wind
The average temperature moves within a narrow band: 26.0 °C in February and March, 28.3 °C in September. The trade wind is strongest from January to June, above 8 m/s on average, and calmest from September to November, when it drops to about 6.3 m/s. Wind matters on the cays: it cools the air, and it also changes how the boat crossings feel.
