The local climate is tropical and
generally hot and humid, though moderated by northeast trade winds along the coast. There are
two rainy seasons, the first from May to mid-August, the second from
mid-November to mid-January. This is the only predictable
feature of the weather. It is hot all the year round - temperatures
seldom rise above 33 degrees (Celsius) during the day, or fall below 25 degrees
(Celsius) during the night. The aforementioned are the shade temperatures so actual temperatures could be higher. Considering, there is also a steady north-easterly wind off the Atlantic
takes the edge off the heat on the coast. The air mass classification in Guyana would be mT which stands for maritime tropical seeing as the climate is humid year round.

The image to the left is an example of valley fog which is a result of cold air draining down from surrounding mountains and seems to hovers in the valleys of the mountains.
