Extended meteorological predictions for the Caribbean island territory provide an outlook of anticipated atmospheric conditions over a month-long period. These predictions typically include daily temperature highs and lows, chances of precipitation, humidity levels, wind speed and direction, and other relevant atmospheric data. An example might show daytime temperatures consistently in the 80s Fahrenheit with elevated humidity and a 20% chance of afternoon showers.
Accessing these extended predictions offers significant advantages for residents, tourists, and businesses operating within the region. Planning outdoor activities, scheduling events, managing agricultural operations, and preparing for potential weather-related disruptions become more manageable with this foresight. Historically, reliance on shorter-term forecasts limited the ability to anticipate and adapt to evolving weather patterns. The development of more sophisticated meteorological models and improved data collection has enhanced the accuracy and usefulness of these longer-range outlooks.
