Is Samoa as hot and rainy as they say?
As one of the northernmost island areas in the South Pacific, the weather in Samoa is indeed hotter and more humid than places like the Cook Islands, Tonga, and Fiji. The average annual temperature at Apia is 79.1 degrees Fahrenheit or 26.2 degrees Celsius. Although the heat is almost constant yearround, the dry season with lower humidity and less rainfall runs from April to September. The windward, southeastern sides of the main islands receive considerably more rain than the sheltered north coasts. The hurricane season is from December to March.
