How common is bad weather in the Dominican Republic?
2004 was a La NiƱa year, which explained the many days of rains the country had experienced that year. The same is true for the rest of the Caribbean region. But, take hope, La Nina occurs very infrequently. If you are coming for a week, while there are no guarantees, chances of you being caught in a bad spell of several days of rain are scant. Again, check the weather satellites to check for a tropical wave or Caribbean storms in the summer, or a cold front coming down from the north in the winter, which while it may not necessarily bring rains, will bring ”chilly” weather of 20-25C.
