Moderate subtropical. The Cuban territory grazes the Tropic
of Cancer, and due to its long and narrow configuration, on
an east-west axis, it receives the refreshing action of the
trade winds and the sea breezes. During the short winter,
it is cooled by masses of cold air from the North; those cold
fronts do not last long. The day and night temperatures differ
less in the coastal regions than inland. The eastern part
of the country has a warmer climate than the western part.
Average temperature 24,6º C (76,3º F)
Summer average 25º C (77º F)
Winter average 22º C (71,6º F)
Seasons: There are two, clearly defined:
the dry season, from November through April; and the rainy
season, from May through October. The average annual precipitation
is 1 375 mm.
