Cuba has a semitropical climate with two distinct seasons: a rainy season from May to October and a dry season from November to April.

Generally the weather in Cuba is sunny, hot and humid. The average minimum temperature is 70°F (21°C), and the average maximum temperature is 81°F (27°C). The heat can get uncomfortable in summer (June to August), with high humidity and temperatures reaching 100°F (38°C). The sea breezes tend to make conditions more pleasant on the coast.

The rainy season is also hurricane season in Cuba and runs from July to November, with September and October being the months most likely to experience severe tropical storms. Thankfully, Cuba has an outstanding public safety record when it comes to handling adverse weather conditions. Expats should keep an eye on the news during the rainy season and follow any relevant government directives or advice.
