Everything below is collected in one spot so you do not have to cross-check Pikine climate: monthly averages by hand. The gap between Feb and Oct is 7.6 C here: 20.5 C against 28.1 C. Precipitation peaks in Aug (5.22 mm/day) and bottoms out in May (0.09 mm/day), so a 58.0x difference between the two. Taken together that is roughly 511 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. Exact monthly values are in the table; links below cover adjacent locations and years.

What the Pikine climate table shows
Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the 14.7646, -17.3907 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
Is Pikine climate data a forecast?
No. These are multi-decadal averages for the grid cell, not a prediction for any particular year.
Why do the numbers differ from a weather app?
An app shows one location on one day. These are long-run averages, so they smooth out single hot or cold spells.
