Rainfall for this dry island is almost non-existent for most of the year. It averages about 1 inch per month every month except for October through December, when rainfall averages 3 inches a month.

Rainfall increases in the late fall and early winter because of the annual Caribbean hurricane season. But Aruba is well known for missing the worst of it, although there are no guarantees.
