About these figures
Low confidence: the climate model's grid square that our cloud and sunshine figures come from is mostly sea near Negril (about 19% land), so the sunshine figures are rougher estimates. Its scores use the tropical model, which does not include sea conditions.
Day temperatures from ERA5-Land, adjusted for altitude with a tropical correction; monthly rain from CHIRPS satellite rainfall; sunshine from ERA5 direct sunlight; sea temperature from ERA5 about 15 km offshore. Averages for 2004–2023.
Scores are estimates from modelled climate data, not forecasts. How we score.
