Port Harcourt's Climate

Port Harcourt lies in the Niger Delta of southern Nigeria, close to the Gulf of Guinea, giving it a hot, humid tropical monsoon climate with very heavy rainfall. Temperatures vary little, with daytime highs of 28–33°C and high humidity all year. The rainy season runs from March to October, peaking around June to September with intense downpours and thunderstorms that often cause local flooding, while the short dry season from November to February is clearer but still muggy, sometimes touched by the dry, dusty harmattan wind off the Sahara. Strong sun and high humidity make it feel sticky.
