Cancun Weather Throughout the Year

Cancun weather is warm and tropical. It is one of the most sunny and pleasant regions of the world and because of that, it attracts numerous tourists throughout the year. Though Cancun weather is generally nice, it is not uncommon to rain. Actually, it is very common for the Cancun weather forecast to report rain almost every day. This however, should not be a worry if you plan on doing your vacation in Cancun. It rains very often, but in most cases it doesn't last much time and all day rains are infrequent. During a single day, weather in Cancun can change from bright and sunny to dark and stormy and back again. Days without sun are very rare and even in the rainy season you will get your share of sunbathing. Depending on the season, temperatures in Cancun are somewhere between 78 °F (26 °C) and 96 °F (36 °C) in the day and 64 °F (18 °C) and 77 °F (25°C) at night. Because of the proximity to the Caribbean humidity is high all year and especially during the wet season.

The coolest weather in Cancun is around January and February but, even then the temperature rarely drops below 68 °F (20 °C) at night. During June and July is the time when Cancun weather gets really hot. The breeze tempers the heat and keeps the temperature around 86 °F (30 °C). This is not the case with the inland area, where it is not uncommon to read 104 °F (40 °C) on the thermometer scale.

Hurricane Season

Due to the fact it is on coast there is the chance that Cancun gets hit by a hurricane. On average, Cancun gets a direct hit from a hurricane every 12 years. Last big one to hit Cancun was hurricane Wilma and it happened in 2005. It was category 5 when it hit land and it did quite some damage. The hurricane season is from June to October but between September and October it's the most likely time for a hurricane to form. Don't worry too much about hurricanes though. Cancun is a truly amazing place to make your vacation and as I said, the chance of being hit by a hurricane is small.
