It is August in the Virgin Islands. That is peak summer months if you live in the States, the time when it is typically the hottest. And of course, people think that the VI is HOTTER than in the States.
But those people are wrong. When many areas Stateside are sitting in the triple digits, we stay much closer to a constant temperature, rarely breaking 90 degrees. Toss in some sporadic showers that cool things down, and we seem to be having nearly perfect weather right now. There is a strong Easterly breeze (which perfectly displays my Colorado Buffalo flag), and the waters are flat. I really don't know how it could get much better.
So those that only think about the VI during the winter, to escape the cold, need to start thinking about coming to the Virgin Islands to COOL OFF from the excessive heat you get at this time of the year. June through August are incredible months in the VI, and I will continue to soak it in.
