To answer your question, I am convinced there is no such thing as "typical weather" anymore. That goes for pretty much everywhere in the world.
Weather patterns are changing to the point that there doesn't seem to be any such thing as weather "patterns" perse.
We never used to have a rainy season in the BVI. Now it seems as though November is "often" a pretty rainy month.
My niece reports that they are having the mildest winter she can recall in Alberta, Canada while my brother-in-law says the weather in Toronto is about as harsh as he can remember over the past 40 years. Go figure, Calgary is waaaay north of Toronto.
Unfortunately, until we start seeing "patterns" again, I don't think anyone has a crystal ball that is accurate.
I rack it up to that old stand by, global warming. I defy anyone to accurately advise travellers as to what may be expected in regards to wind, rain or wave heights in any given month anymore. There really isn't anything "typical" anymore. It poured at my place last night. I mean it came down in torrents. We've had several heavy rains this month already. Three or four years ago, we had a drought for much of February and the entire month of March.
Go figure!
