no customs, no passport
Climate
The climate of Puerto Rico falls into the
tropical climatic zone. Temperatures are
moderate year round, averaging near 80 °F
(27 °C) in lower elevations and 70 °F (21 °C)
in the mountains. Easterly trade winds pass
across the island year round. Puerto Rico
has a rainy season which stretches from
April into November. The mountains of the
Cordillera Central are the main cause of the
variations in the temperature and rainfall that
occur over very short distances. The
mountains can also cause wide variation in
local wind speed and direction due to their
sheltering and channeling effects adding to
the climatic variation.
Population
Is slightly four million, with a
slight majority living in and
around the San Juan
metropolitan area.
