The climate is subtropical in the low coastal areas and temperate in the mountains. There is no rainy season but showers, sometimes downpours, occur in winter. The islands are under the influence of the NE trade winds and are only rarely affected by tropical cyclones.
The Islands have a significant impact on the prevailing trade winds. Katabatic winds may be present and the trade winds can be funneled into the areas between the higher islands, yielding wind speeds that may be double the surface winds elsewhere.
There is also a surface current that moves in the same direction as the trade winds.
