The weather is great in January. Of course us locals do not swim as the water is way too cold for us... anything under 88 degrees fahrenheit is too cold!

If you are coming from a country that has cold winters, it will seem like summer to you. Locals shiver but visitors sweat.

Hopefully this January will be better than last when I recall a lot of rainy, chilly weather in Sosua.

This country used to have definite rainy and dry seasons, but this is no longer true.

Think it's right to say that the 2 last januarys in Sosua has been realy bad, with more or less constant rain and overcast for many days in a row, and pretty cold too. Hope this is not a trend, and that this january will be a lot better.
