What is the typical weather pattern for Kawungan?

How does the wind affect Kawungan’s weather?
The prevailing south-easterly trade winds keep Kawungan cooler than inland areas. When the wind shifts north-easterly, humidity rises and showers become more likely. The live forecast above will show current wind direction and speed.
