Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Tuesday evening 18:00 l.t., May 12, 2026.

Issued:
Monday May 11, 2026, 17:50 l.t. (21:50 UTC).

Weather:
STATEMENT FOR ROUGH SEAS IS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTH AND EAST COASTAL SECTIONS OF CURAÇAO Weather: Partly cloudy skies, accompanied by fresh winds with somewhat hazy and dry conditions. However, a brief localized shower cannot be excluded by early tomorrow. Forecast high will be 32ºC and the low will be 27ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:12 and sunset at 18:52.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots). Occasionally strong to possibly near gale in gusts; force 6 to 7 (40 to 61 km/h, 22 to 33 knots).

Synopsis:
A relatively dry air mass continues to dominate the region, maintaining generally dry and stable conditions across the area of our island. Despite this, localized effects may still trigger an isolated shower in a few restricted areas on the island. The tight pressure gradient related to a strong Central Atlantic high continues to result in moderate to fresh, sometimes strong winds.

Sea conditions:
Moderate to locally rough with wave heights ranging between 1.5 and 2.5 meters (4 to 8 feet). Above normal, wind driven waves continue to affect the northern and eastern coastal sections of the island, while northeasterly swells are producing breakers reaching up to 2.5 meters (8 feet), particularly along the north and east coasts. As a result, the cautionary statement (Code Yellow) for rough seas remains in force. Mariners are urged to proceed with caution and swimmers are advised to remain vigilant and avoid venturing far from the shoreline.

Special features:
None.

Outlook until Wednesday evening:
Partly cloudy conditions are expected to persist with winds easing slightly by Wednesday. A few localized showers may develop during the overnight and morning.
