The Weather?
It's Either Dry or It'sRaining!

There are two weather seasons in Tobago. The rainy season and the dry season. By tradition the dry season runs from about December to June, and the rainy season kicks in form July to November.

Don't be fooled. There's rain in the dry season and likewise there are hot dry days and spells in the wet season. The seasons only signify the predominant pattern. And nowadays with seasonal patterns changing all over the globe, there can be no real guarantees.

At any rate, here's today's forecast:

We here have a much more useful designation for the seasons. The island having an agricultural background and history, we still describe the seasons with reference to the fruits and other products. So, there's the mango season, the guava season, the peas season, and so on.

By the way, guavas are small fruit, and until they are ripe are extremely tough. Therefore "guava season" has become a metaphor for 'hard times.'

P.S. If you prefer a different kind of weather and culture, why not try Iceland
