Jepara's Climate
Jepara is a coastal district on the north coast of Java, Indonesia, hugging the Java Sea just over six degrees south of the equator, which gives it a hot, humid tropical monsoon climate all year. Temperatures barely vary, with daytime highs usually 30–33°C and nights rarely below 23°C. Being in the southern hemisphere, the year divides into a wet season from about November to April, when the northwest monsoon brings frequent showers and thunderstorms, and a cooler, drier season from May to October under the dry southeast monsoon. Humidity stays high and the midday sun is fierce.
