A consolidated reference for Abuja climate: monthly averages, rebuilt from public data on a schedule. Expect 24.0 C at the coldest (Aug) and 28.6 C at the warmest (Mar) — a 4.6 C spread. Expect a wet season rather than rain year-round: Aug brings 8.17 mm/day against 0.03 mm/day in Dec. Taken together that is roughly 1,177 mm of rain a year for the grid cell. The build runs on a schedule and caches the last good response, so the numbers stay put even when the upstream API is having a bad day.

What the Abuja climate table shows
Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the 9.0579, 7.4951 grid cell, not a single year. Rain is the daily mean, so a value of 2.00 mm/day is about 60 mm across a 30-day month. Averages smooth over extremes, so use them for planning rather than for what to pack for next Tuesday.
Frequently asked questions
How much rain is 8.17 mm/day in a month?
Rain is recorded as a daily mean, so 8.17 mm/day is roughly 248 mm across a 30-day month.
Does Abuja get the same every year?
Close to it. Averaging decades smooths variation, so treat these as typical rather than guaranteed.
