The climate of Kampong Bukit Panggal
Kampong Bukit Panggal, located in Brunei, is characterized by an Af or Tropical Rainforest climate according to the Köppen climate classification. This classification describes regions in which all twelve months have mean temperatures above 18°C (64.4°F). Moreover, these equatorial climates are profoundly influenced by the Intertropical Convergence Zone, resulting in heavy rainfall throughout the year. Kampong Bukit Panggal is a classic example of this climate classification.A constant feature of Kampong Bukit Panggal's climate is its uniformly warm temperatures. Average minimum temperatures range narrowly from 25°C (77°F) to 26.3°C (79.3°F), while average maximum temperatures typically range from 29.2°C (84.6°F) up to 31.3°C (88.3°F). However, the high relative humidity levels, averaging between 75% and 81%, contribute to the sense of heat and can make the environment feel warmer than the actual temperatures suggest.
Precipitation is abundant and well distributed throughout the year, with monthly averages spanning from 73mm (2.87") in February up to 206mm (8.11") in December.

Consequently, the number of days with rainfall each month is relatively high, ranging from 21.3 in February to 28.7 in December.
Apart from these patterns, a few unique features of this climate include relatively stable barometric pressure, generally good visibility, and a moderate UV index of 7 across all months. This UV index is rather high and requires protective measures against sunburn.
