The short answer

The modeled climate comparison shows warmer average daily highs early in the year and cooler conditions around July. Rain appears throughout the year, with the largest monthly total in this dataset in November. Use that broad pattern to plan a useful stay. Then inspect the home's cooling, ventilation, damp and final approach. A monthly average cannot tell you whether a particular road or beach will be usable on the day.

  • The chart uses modeled grid estimates, not a village station.
  • The comparison covers 1991 to 2020.
  • Rain appears in every month of the dataset.
  • Inspect the actual home and road after rain.

Average highs range from 80°F to 91°F. Rainfall peaks at 172.5 mm a month. NASA POWER, 1991 to 2020 daily MERRA2 grid estimates (opens in a new tab)

The chart uses NASA POWER daily MERRA2 model estimates for 1991 to 2020, requested at the town reference coordinate. Highs and lows average each year's monthly daily values, then give each of the 30 years equal weight. Rainfall averages the 30 monthly totals. All daily values are present for the calculation.1,2,3

NASA describes a native meteorological grid of 0.5 degrees latitude by 0.625 degrees longitude. These are regional model estimates around Arraial, with an area-average surface. They are not measurements at a village weather station, a home thermometer or a forecast. The coast and an individual home can differ.4

In this calculation, February's average daily high is 91°F (32.5°C), while July's is 80°F (26.6°C). Mean monthly rainfall is 172.5 millimeters in November and 62.2 millimeters in September. The lower-rain month still needs a rain plan.1

Inspect the warm working and sleeping rooms

The selected Novo apartment advertises air conditioning. Run the actual equipment and ask for recent power bills, maintenance responsibility and the home's usual cooling pattern. Check airflow, shade and damp in the rooms you will use, rather than judging comfort from the photograph.5,6

Work from the proposed room at your normal time, and visit the sleeping room when it will matter. If the connection, cooling or pump depends on electricity, decide how a disruption affects the household. Remote work and utilities turn that into practical checks.5,6,7

Check the home approach after rain

A February 26, 2026 municipal report said Estrada da Balsa had avoided flooding during the previous night's rain after cleaning work. It also said definitive drainage work was still being planned. Read that as one dated road report, then inspect your entrance, drainage and access independently.8

Ask the owner about past water entry, repairs and where runoff collects. Walk the route you will use for school, groceries and the ferry. Follow current local warnings and avoid crossing floodwater.8,9,10

Plan the outing for the day's conditions

Ocean currents and warning flags matter on a beach day. Ask locally about the actual conditions and lifeguard advice before entering the water. The historical photograph and climate chart do not certify swimming or beach access.9,11

Check Eco Parque's operating calendar and rules for the chosen date. For the municipal trail, confirm the present entrance and condition before walking. Use weekends, safety and where to live alongside the forecast.9,12,13

Questions people ask

Are these local weather-station normals?

No. The chart is a 1991 to 2020 calculation from NASA POWER daily MERRA2 grid estimates around the requested town coordinate. It describes modeled regional conditions.

Does a lower-rain month mean no rain?

No. Every month in this dataset has rainfall. Check the current forecast and the road or outing conditions for your actual dates.

What should I check about air conditioning?

Run the actual unit, ask about maintenance and read recent electricity bills. Compare the room's shade, airflow and comfort at the hours you use it.

Does the Estrada da Balsa report prove my home avoids flooding?

No. It describes one night and planned further drainage work. Inspect your own entrance, ask about past water entry and follow current warnings.
