Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Wednesday midday 12:00 l.t., June 3, 2026.

Issued:
Tuesday June 2, 2026, 11:00 l.t. (15:00 UTC).

Weather:
TATEMENT FOR ROUGH SEAS IS IN EFFECT FOR NORTHERN AND EASTERN COASTAL SECTIONS OF CURAÇAO. Weather: Partly cloudy and hazy conditions with generally dry weather and a persistent strong wind regime. Moderate to occasionally strong concentrations of fine Saharan dust will continue to reduce visibility and degrade air quality. Forecast high will be 31ºC and the low will be 27ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:10 and sunset at 18:58.

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 weak disturbance is increasing low-level moisture across the area, resulting in cloudy skies with intermittent light showers during the first part of the period. The remainder of the forecast is expected to be predominantly dry, though hazy conditions will persist. Elevated concentrations of fine Saharan dust will continue to reduce visibility and degrade air quality across the ABC Islands; therefore, a cautionary statement (Code Yellow) remains in effect for excessive Saharan dust. The pressure gradient remains tight, maintaining strong trade winds.

Sea conditions:
Moderate to quite rough with wave heights between 1.5 and 2.5 meters (4 and 8 feet). The highest wind-generated waves are expected mainly to the north and east of the island and over the open sea. For this reason, a cautionary statement (Code Yellow) for rough seas is in effect. Small-craft operators are advised to remain close to the coast due to reduced visibility associated with Saharan dust, while mariners should navigate with caution and swimmers are urged to stay vigilant and avoid venturing far from the shore.

Significant tropical weather systems:
None.

Special features:
None.

Outlook until Thursday midday:
Variably cloudy conditions, ranging from partly to mostly cloudy with generally dry weather and persistent haze. Fresh to strong winds will continue throughout the period. Saharan dust concentrations are expected to gradually diminish by Thursday.

Forecaster:
Kasmani.

The next weather forecast will be issued on Tuesday 17:00 l.t. (21:00 UTC).
