Trinidad and Tobago:
Wet days with rainfall amounts ranging between 10-45mm are expected during the 2nd, 7th, 9th, 12th and 13th while relatively wet days with rainfall amounts less than 8.0 mm are expected during the 1st, 3rd, 4th-6th, 8th, 10th-11th and 14th-15th of June 2023. The daily rainfall totals are forecast to range between 0.0 mm to 45.0 mm across different farmlands across the islands, especially along the eastern coastal areas of Trinidad, and Tobago with fifteen-day rainfall totals ranging between 60.0 mm and 100.0 mm in Trinidad, and 100 mm in Tobago.
Temperatures & Winds:
The maximum temperatures are expected to remain warm, with daily temperatures ranging between 31.0oC to 33.0oC throughout the period. However, temperatures are expected to have a real-feel or feels-like between 31.0oC to 38.0oC on most days. The minimum temperatures will range between 24.5oC to 25.5oC during most nights/early mornings, dropping lower in rural areas and valleys.
In general, mostly easterly winds of an average speed of 20 km/h are expected, however, gusts can range between 30-50 km/h. Moderate to high rainfall totals, mostly low to moderate speeds, warm days, and warmer feels-like temperatures will sustain average evapotranspiration rates in crops ranging between 2.0 to 10.0 mm per day.
Moisture levels:
Over the fifteen-day period across Trinidad and Tobago, moisture levels are expected to be moderate to high, with average daytime relative humidity values in the mid-50s to mid-90s, in terms of percentage.
