Rainfall for December and for 2023: We’re putting West End’s 18.09 inches in the record book for December. That number was pretty typical across the Big Island and for Utila as well. That is well above our December average of 12.3 inches. Incredibly, we are above average for the year. That’s incredible because from January through September we had gotten about half our normal rainfall. But October through December made up for lost ground.
As we look forward to January, we see the beginning of the end of the rainy season. January averages 11 inches and the end of the month is typically drier than the beginning. But based on the current forecast the beginning of January looks fairly dry, so odds are good for a below average January rainfall.
