Forecast

Acajutla has a hot, humid tropical climate. Temperatures usually stay between about 24°C and 33°C during the year. The nearby Pacific Ocean keeps temperatures from changing quickly, but humidity can make the heat feel stronger.

The area has a dry season from about November through April. High air pressure over the Pacific Ocean often brings sinking, stable air and very little rain. The wet season usually lasts from May through October. Lower air pressure and the movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone bring moist air, clouds, and frequent afternoon or evening storms.

Acajutla lies on a flat coastal plain beside the Pacific Ocean. Sea breezes help cool the coast during the day. Mountains and volcanoes farther inland force moist air upward, which can create more rain near the higher land. Rainfall is often heavy during storms, while long dry periods are common in the early part of the year.

The local climate is tropical savanna, with warm weather in every month. The hottest time often comes just before the rainy season begins. Tropical storms in the eastern Pacific can sometimes bring strong winds and extra rain, even when they do not pass directly over Acajutla.
