Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Saturday midday 12:00 l.t., August 22, 2026.

Issued:
Friday August 21, 2026, 11:00 l.t. (15:00 UTC).

Weather:
Mostly cloudy conditions with intermittent showers and isolated thunderstorms possible. Overnight and into tomorrow, showers will become more frequent with additional thunderstorms, while winds weaken. Rainfall may reach moderate to occasionally heavy intensities, which could result in localized flooding in low-lying or poorly drained areas. Forecast high will be 31ºC and the low will be 26ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:25 and sunset at 18:53.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate; force 3 to 4 (12 to 30 km/h, 7 to 16 knots). Occasionally fresh to strong in gusts, especially in and around showers; force 5 to 6 (31 to 50 km/h, 17 to 27 knots).

Synopsis:
A broad zone of moisture associated with the ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) continues to influence the region, maintaining high humidity and atmospheric instability. These conditions are favorable for significant cloud development with showers occurring at times and the potential for isolated thunderstorms either around or over our island. Overnight, additional cloud patches are expected to move in, leading to more frequent showers by tomorrow, again accompanied by a risk of thunderstorms. Due to the presence of the ITCZ, surface winds will weaken from tomorrow.

Sea conditions:
Moderate with wave heights between 1.5 and 2 meters (4 and 6 feet). The highest waves are expected over the northern and western open sea area.

Significant tropical weather systems:
None.

Special features:
None.

Outlook until Sunday midday:
Partly to mostly cloudy conditions with scattered showers developing across the area on Sunday morning. Winds will remain weak as the influence of the ITCZ persists.

Forecaster:
Kasmani.

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