June weather forecast
Cape Verde

June marks the official start of summer in Cape Verde and with it, an increase in temperatures. During this month, averages can range from 25°C (77°F) to 30°C (86°F), with the cooler end of the spectrum typically observed in the coastal cities of Praia and Mindelo due to the Atlantic Ocean's moderating influence.

While June maintains the trend of arid conditions seen throughout the year, there is a noticeable increase in rainfall. The average precipitation for June is approximately 20mm (0.79"), which, while still low, marks a noticeable increase from May. Despite this rise, rainfall is sporadic, and most days in June are characterised by clear skies and ample sunshine.

Regarding wind conditions, the Harmattan winds from the Sahara, known for carrying dust and dry air, have largely subsided by June. As a result, the atmosphere is less dusty, which improves visibility, especially within Cape Verde's inland regions.

Looking forward to July, the subsequent month, the weather continues to heat up, and there is another slight increase in precipitation. Despite this, Cape Verde's climate remains predominantly arid, with the increase in rainfall still not enough to drastically alter the dry conditions of the archipelago. Therefore, the transition from June to July is characterized by a continuation of warm, arid weather, with minor increases in both temperatures and precipitation.
