August weather forecast
Colombia

August in Colombia is characterized by a further shift towards drier conditions compared to the earlier months, as the less intense phase of the rainy season continues. Despite this, the warmth persists with consistently high temperatures across the country contributing to a humid climate.

The Andean region, where Colombia's capital Bogota is situated, remains relatively temperate due to its higher altitude. Here, temperatures typically range from 17.8°C (64°F) to 25.2°C (77.4°F), revealing a slight increase from July. The warmth, however, remains comfortable, largely thanks to the region's elevation.

Contrarily, regions such as the Guajira Peninsula in the north and the Amazon region sustain their hotter climates, experiencing temperatures varying from 26°C (78.8°F) to 32.8°C (91°F). This trend maintains the consistently high heat typical of these regions' year-round warm season.

Although August is still part of the rainy season, it sees a further reduction in rainfall compared to July. Even in areas like Quibdo, known for its high precipitation, rainfall decreases, with averages hovering around 660mm (25.98") for the month. This gradual decrease in rainfall is a clear indicator of the impending drier period.

Despite the decreased rainfall, the Pacific Coast and the Caribbean Sea sustain their warm water temperatures, generally fluctuating between 26.1°C (79°F) and 28.9°C (84°F). These temperatures continue to support a variety of water activities, albeit the optimal conditions for these pursuits may be impacted by the continued decline in rainfall.
