Weather.com and others says is rains everyday here. I guess this would make us the perfect island for farming, waterfalls, white water tours and all that fun stuff that makes Islands like Dominica awesome. The truth is that we are one of the driest islands in the Caribbean. Look here for all the weather sites you could want which will all show how dry Antigua and Barbuda get. Also, between 1954 and 1989 we didn't have a single hurricane hit out nation, but we did have several big ones in the 90s. Hurricane season is officially between June and November but the main months to keep an eye on the weather are between mid August and mid October. You will also find more info here on any possible unlikely threat:

www.weathercarib.com: Lots of good sat maps showing the lack of cloud cover

A satellite loop or the area: Shows what is happeing to the clouds at the moment in the region. Very good for making plans.

www.caribwx.com: Good for those who are going boating.

Close up Shot: The arrow points to Montserrat and we are just next door to the right. The largest island there is Guadeloupe. This map shows what the sky is like now...clear right?

www.weather.com/closeup Same as above but closer images of the Caribbean and Antigua.
