How the score works
The season score is a relative 0–100 measure of how suitable each time of year is for travel at this destination, grouped into seven levels. It combines climate-normal trends in temperature, rain, cloud cover, and other conditions.
Data: NASA POWER, NOAA GHCN-Daily, OISST, IBTrACS, and Natural Earth.
