Hoji ya Henda's Climate
Hoji ya Henda is a district of the capital Luanda in northwestern Angola, on the Atlantic coast south of the equator, with a hot semi-arid climate shaped by the cold Benguela Current, which keeps it far drier than its tropical latitude would suggest. The hot, humid wet season runs from about October to April, with showers and thunderstorms concentrated in November to April and daytime highs of 28–32°C. The cooler dry season, known locally as cacimbo, lasts from May to September and is milder, with low cloud, coastal fog and little rain. Humidity stays generally high year-round.
