Hot and hotter. Actually, it depends on the time of year. Humidity is never that bad, not like the rainforest. Dry season runs from ~ Jan through May, with rains slowing in Nov. At peak dry season, avg. daily temp is anywhere between ~92 and 102. How hot it feels depends a lot on the wind, too, which is mildly abundant until the last month of dry season, then it begins to really swelter. Night temps drop 10 - 15 degrees, until the last month of dry season, when temps fluctuate less.

In wet season, it still can get hot, and humidity fluctuates throughout the day along with the rain, which often falls sometimes all day, then often in the AM only. Otherwise, low temps may be in the 60s (more often at night), but avg. daytime temps still in the 80s and can get into the 90s.

Near the end of dry season, humidity is very low. The Llanos are distinct in having very extreme seasonality.

I'll dig up some more photos later....
