St Thomas and St John, USVI's weather year around
As good as it gets, temperatures average about 77°F from November to February, with a variation of only 5°F-7°F during the year. In summer, when the mercury tops the 80°Fs, never-ending trade winds sweep in to soften the climate. Winter is the Dry Season and summer is the Wet Season, but even when it rains, the showers are so brief you barely have time to pack up your beach bag before the sun returns. The heart of hurricane season lasts from late August to early November, though strikes are rare and there is plenty of advance notice to prepare. When threatened by a hurricane strike, one should expect a 2-day displacement from evacuation to safe return.
