Climate from the NEW CALEDONIA

From December to March: it is the hot season, known as cyclone season. The intertropical zone of convergence is then located in the southern hemisphere, its mean position oscillating around the 15th parallel. During this season, the formation of about ten (on average) tropical disturbances occurs in the area between the southern equator and eastern Australia. These perturbations, at first more or less stationary, then have an erratic trajectory. They cause torrential rains and winds that increase with the importance of the phenomenon. April and May: it is a transitional season. The area of inter-tropical convergence rises towards the north. Tropical disturbances are rare and generally not very active. Rainfall decreases and temperatures decrease significantly. from June to August: it's the cool season. The intertropical convergence zone is located in the northern hemisphere. The cold fronts of perturbations of polar origin cross the Tasman Sea and sometimes reach the territory. Their passage is accompanied by precipitation often abundant, especially on the south of the Grande Terre and a burst of west wind blowing sometimes in storm. This peculiarity gave them the name of « coups d'ouest ». The temperature of the air passes through its annual minimum between mid-July and mid-August. September to November: it is a transitional season. The zone of inter-tropical convergence descends to the south, crossing the equator. The subtropical anticyclonic belt, which then reaches its maximum importance, protects our regions from disturbances of polar origin. The trade wind blows almost permanently, it is the most beautiful period of the year, but it is also the dry season, favorable to the bushfires.

Climate from the REUNION ISLAND

Located in the south-western part of the Indian Ocean, Reunion Island remains for most of the year under the influence of trade winds led by the semi-permanent high pressure of the Indian Ocean. The intensity and characteristics of these dominant southeastern trade winds vary according to the season. During the southern winter (May to November), this anticyclone is most often centered in the southern neighborhood of the Mascarenes and its action can extend to the equator. The generally stable trade wind flow results in relatively cool and dry weather in many places, despite some rainfall associated with frontal system passages. During the southern summer (December to April) the high pressure is moving towards the south, and the Mascarenes are interested only by its northern border. The zone of low intertropical pressures, along the thermal equator, moves southwards and directly influences these regions. The trade winds are weakening, a northeastern current predominates most often and a hot, humid and rainy weather is established during this season. Tropical cyclones occur during the southern summer. Without taking into account the highly diversified microclimatic zones generated by the tormented relief of the island, several regions with contrasting rainfall can be observed on either side of the two powerful mountain ranges. North of the first north-west / south-easterly chain, culminating at 3069 m at Piton des Neiges, the high rainfall on the highlands gradually decreases towards the coastline as well as from east to west. In the south, drought rages from May to November on the coast and a large part of the heights. The second chain, the Piton de la Fournaise (volcano still in operation) is 2631 m on the edge of the Bory crater and stands out from the island, the two deep gorges that are the beds of the eastern rivers and Remparts seem to isolate it. The rains are abundant and frequent, especially north of the volcano. the two deep gorges which are the beds of the rivers of the east and the Remparts seem to isolate it.
