December - April

The driest months here start a little earlier than in coastal areas, beginning in November and continuing until around May. Temperatures during these months vary month to month: February hovers in the low twenties before reaching the high twenties by April, the warmest month of the year. Due to the altitude it can get a little chilly in the evenings.
