Forecast

Weather Forecast for Curaçao and surroundings valid until Wednesday midday 12:00 l.t., April 8, 2026.

Issued:
Tuesday April 7, 2026, 11:00 l.t. (15:00 UTC).

Weather:
YELLOW: A CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR ROUGH SEAS IS IN EFFECT FOR ALL COASTAL SECTIONS OF CURAÇAO. Weather: Mostly cloudy skies will prevail with a slight chance of an isolated shower. Nevertheless, generally fair conditions are expected, accompanied by moderate to strong winds Forecast high will be 30ºC and the low will be 26ºC. Sunrise will occur at 06:28 and sunset at 18:47.

Winds:
Easterly and moderate to fresh; force 4 to 5 (20 to 39 km/h, 11 to 21 knots). Occasionally strong to near gale in gusts; force 6 to 7 (40 to 61 km/h, 22 to 33 knots).

Synopsis:
A low-pressure system continues to draw moisture into the region, supporting scattered to overcast cloud development with a few isolated showers. Despite this, generally fair weather is expected to prevail over our island under a persistent southeasterly flow. The high pressure difference will continue to generate rather strong winds.

Sea conditions:
Moderate to quite rough with wave heights between 1.5 and 2.5 meters (4 and 8 feet). Due to the combination of wind-generated waves and southeasterly swells, rough sea conditions will prevail around our island with wave heights of up to 2.5 meters (8 feet). As a result, a cautionary statement for rough seas (Code Yellow) remains in effect. Mariners operating small vessels should navigate with caution and swimmers are urged to remain vigilant and avoid venturing far from shore.

Special features:
None.

Outlook until Thursday midday:
Partly to mostly cloudy skies are expected, but predominantly fair conditions will prevail with winds remaining strong throughout the period. There is a slight chance that a plume of fine Saharan dust may reach the region by Thursday. Rough seas are expected to persist.

Forecaster:
Kasmani.

The next weather forecast will be issued on Tuesday 17:00 l.t. (21:00 UTC).
