Issued:
Thursday August 20, 2026, 05:00 l.t. (09:00 UTC).

Weather:
Light to partly cloudy and rainfall may be of insignificant character today. Forecast high will be 33ºC and the low will be 27ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:25 and sunset at 18:54.

Synopsis:
A relatively dry air mass along atmospheric stability will inhibit significant cloud development in our region. Therefor a dry condition will continue to prevail throughout the day. Tomorrow morning an increase in low level humidity is expected. This will cause more cloudiness, out of which a light local shower could develop.

Significant tropical weather systems:
None.

Special features:

After that date, the sun will begin moving northward again and will be directly overhead Curaçao once more during the afternoon of 22 April 2027.
