October weather forecast
Guyana

October in Guyana is part of the dry season, but it also signals the gradual approach of the minor rainy season. The month starts off relatively dry, with precipitation levels lower than the major rainy season, often less than 200mm (7.87"). However, towards the end of the month, there is a noticeable increase in rainfall as the country gears up for the minor rainy season that begins in November.

This shift in weather is experienced across the country, from major cities like Georgetown and New Amsterdam to smaller towns like Linden. The increased rainfall towards the end of October prepares the landscape for the upcoming rainy season, turning the terrain more lush and vibrant.

Despite these changing precipitation levels, October maintains the consistently warm temperatures that are characteristic of Guyana's tropical monsoon climate. Average temperatures range from 23°C (73.4°F) to 30°C (86°F), ensuring a steady level of warmth throughout the month. There are no extreme temperatures in October, which contributes to the overall consistency of Guyana's climate.

As October transitions into November, the rise in rainfall becomes more pronounced. November marks the beginning of the minor rainy season in Guyana, with a significant increase in precipitation compared to October. Thus, while October sees an uptick in rainfall, it merely sets the stage for the more intense rainy conditions of the upcoming month.
