The Weather in Hawaii
If you’re looking for a real world paradise, Hawaii with its near perfect weather is an ideal place to visit. Hawaii and its eight islands – Hawaii, Kahoolawe, Maui, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau – are situated in the temperate Pacific ocean more than 2,000 miles off the coast of California. Today Yaling and Bruce discuss the weather in Hawaii which basically has two seasons, winter and summer. The main differences are the amount of rain and much less so the temperatures, especially from place to place. The average temperature year-round is 75º F Between the warmest weather in August and the coldest weather in January. The daytime temperature may vary 5 – 7º F. February is the most unpredictable month. Temperatures depend on elevation. In summer, go over 2,000-ft and it’s definitely cooler; temperature drops three degrees for every 1000-ft of elevation. But it also rains more in the mountains and upcountry, especially on the windward side.
