Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Saturday midday 12:00 l.t., July 18, 2026.

Issued:
Friday July 17, 2026, 11:00 l.t. (15:00 UTC).

Weather:
Light to partly cloudy skies will prevail under unsettled conditions. Winds may strengthen at times, reaching slightly higher levels, while the presence of fine Saharan dust will continue to produce slightly hazy skies. Forecast high will be 33ºC and the low will be 27ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:19 and sunset at 19:05.

Winds:
Easterly, occasionally shifting to the northeast at times 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 trough that moved across the region earlier has left behind areas of low-level clouds, which are producing some localized shower activity over parts of our island at the beginning of the forecast period. Conditions will remain somewhat unsettled throughout the day with a few brief showers possible and skies occasionally hazy. During the night and into tomorrow morning, a renewed influx of moisture is expected to develop, which may lead to a few to scattered showers. Fresh to strong winds will prevail, driven by the high pressure difference associated with the Atlantic high.

Sea conditions:
Moderate to fairly rough with wave heights between 1.5 and 2 meters (4 and 7 feet). The highest waves are expected over the open sea area.

Significant tropical weather systems:
None.

Special features:
None.

Partly cloudy conditions with a brief isolated shower possible, mainly during the early morning; otherwise, conditions will be predominantly dry.
