I just checked.
At the time I posted this the current temp in Port of Spain is 31c with humidity at 55%.
In Tampa its 32c with humidity at 54%.
That's according to experts at The Weather Channel and not your buddy in Trinidad.
You won't find many houses running A/C 24/7 either.
Facts,baby,facts.

Its the same broken record. The only time i enjoy summer is when we are in a southeast windflow and i get some heavy t- storms later in the day. When we are in a reverse west windflow and that is around 78.23% of the summer then i hate it with a gutless passion as all i get is solid sunshine and no rain.

Not even one day-he was comparing one MOMENT. But Roscoe knows Trinidad's weather better than my friend who was born and raised there...

Incoming major storms from one of the outer bands. Awesome! We had one heck of a storm the other night. Best yet since we lived here.

What I don't like about the unrelieved relentless heat is that sooner or later, nature wants to even things out, via a hurricane.

I known Caribbean weather better than you - by my reckoning I've been there more than 150 times over the years on business and pleasure.
Yourself ?

They, he or she has no clue. Nothing compares to our hell like reverse west windflow, even Queensland down under would blush.

I spent years fishing down there. Still none of it compares to our reverse west windflow.
