The Caribbean Sea [1] ... Average sea surface temperatures for the Caribbean Atlantic Ocean (25–27 August 2005). [25] Hurricane Katrina is seen just above Cuba.
Graph showing historic temperature change globally and in the Caribbean region. Climate change in the Caribbean poses major risks to the islands in the Caribbean.The main environmental changes expected to affect the Caribbean are a rise in sea level, stronger hurricanes, longer dry seasons and shorter wet seasons.

In the central area of the island the elevation and reduced sea effects bring the minimum temperatures to 55–65 °F (13–18 °C) on average. After fronts pass the temperature may drop to the 40s (4–9 °C) in the mountains, in the 50s (10–15 °C) in the valleys, and in the low 60s (16 °C to 20 °C) in the coastal zone.

But as ocean temperatures break new records, the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has warned of an "extraordinary" 2024 Atlantic season and forecast 17 to 25 named ...
Projected global surface temperature changes relative to 1850–1900, based on CMIP6 multi-model mean changes. The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report defines global mean surface temperature (GMST) as the "estimated global average of near-surface air temperatures over land and sea ice, and sea surface temperature (SST) over ice-free ocean regions, with changes normally expressed as departures from a ...
The annual rainfall is 1000 to over 1500 mm (39 to 59 inches). The temperature ranges from 20 to 35 °C (68 to 95 °F). Under the Köppen climate classification, a "tropical marine climate" would fall under Af or Am, tropical rainforest or tropical monsoon climate. The trade winds blow all year round and are moist, as they pass over warm seas. [1]
Temperatures remain steady throughout the year with an average mean temperature of 27.2 °C (81.0 °F). The average sea temperature is 27.2 °C (81.0 °F) ranging from a low of 25.9 °C (78.6 °F) in February to a high of 28.4 °C (83.1 °F) in October. [26]
