The following excerpt from CariCOF’s Caribbean Climate Outlook Newsletter summarises the climate conditions and related hazards for the upcoming 3-month period November 2024 to January 2025:
“Unusually warm Tropical North Atlantic Ocean temperatures and likely La Niña conditions in the equatorial Pacific imply:
(i) episodes of uncomfortable humid heat fading more slowly than in most years, with the odd heatwave still a possibility in November, particularly in the ABC Islands, the Guianas and the Windward Islands;
(ii) increased severe weather activity through December (January in the Guianas), resulting in high to extremely high potential for flooding, flash floods, cascading hazards and associated impacts;
(iii) short dry spells are set to increase in frequency, particularly in the far northwest of the region, despite that the Islands and Belize are expected to transition into the 2024-25 Dry Season several weeks late.”
