Climate of Honolulu, Oahu

It's not just a cliche'! This truly is paradise. I've lived here for 26 years and have rarely been disappointed about anything concerning the weather. Well, maybe Hurricane Iniki in 1992!
Daytime winter temps range in the 70's and occasionally low 80's. Nighttime winter temps in Honolulu range in the 60's, but can be chillier in central Oahu and places closer to the mountains. It rains more in the winter, but that's what keeps everything so lush and beautiful. Waikiki gets the least amount of rain year round, while the neighborhood of Manoa (a lovely older community), with it's proximity to the Koolau mountain range, gets the most.
The two hottest months of the year are August and September, with daytime temps in the mid to high 80's, and nights in the 70's. It's rare to have many days in the 90's. Our beloved trade winds keep the temperatures very comfortable in the summer and also keep the air clean and fresh year round.
