What to expectUíge through the year

Uíge changes little through the year. Average daily highs stay between 30 and 30 °C, so no month stands out as a season in the way it would further from the equator.

Rain is strongly seasonal. April averages 320 mm against 1 mm in July — 216 times as much. Planning around the dry months matters more here than planning around temperature.
