Rain days, not degrees, split the calendar. January logs 27, February 26, December 26. Those 3 months form the wettest band. November and March each record 25 rain days, close behind. The drier window runs from June through October, when the count drops to 17-19 per month. July posts the year's lowest at 17 rain days and a 27°C high, the coolest month in the set. April and May land between the two seasons at 19 and 21 rain days.
