Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Friday evening 18:00 l.t., April 10, 2026.

Issued:
Thursday April 9, 2026, 17:50 l.t. (21:50 UTC).

Weather:
ELLOW: A CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR ROUGH SEAS IS IN EFFECT FOR ALL COASTAL SECTIONS OF CURAÇAO. Weather: Partly cloudy skies in general and mostly dry, accompanied by occasionally brisk winds. A plume of fine Saharan dust will lead to hazy conditions, while reducing visibility. Forecast high will be 30ºC and the low will be 26ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:27 and sunset at 18:48.

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

Synopsis:
Relatively low moisture levels along with stable conditions will restrict significant cloudiness and shower activity over the area of our island remainder of today and tomorrow. Haziness will persist due to fine Saharan dust particles suspended in the air mass over the region. A tight pressure gradient from a strong Atlantic high continues to cause somewhat strong winds and locally rough seas.

Sea conditions:
Moderate to quite rough over open waters with wave heights between 1.5 and 2.5 meters (4 and 8 feet). As a result, a cautionary statement for rough seas (Code Yellow) remains in effect. Mariners operating small vessels should navigate with caution and swimmers are urged to remain vigilant and avoid venturing far from shore.

Special features:
None.

Outlook until Saturday evening:
Partly cloudy skies are expected with conditions remaining generally dry. Winds will gradually ease through the period.
