The climate of Mitú (Colombia)
Mitú is located in the department of Vaupes in Columbia in the
southeastern part of the country. The city suffered a lot from the
fights between the government and members of the FARC. During the
1990s parts of the city were destroyed by these fights. The main
source of income is the production of rubber. However, because of
its location in a tropical rainforest the city is quite remotely
located. Most people travel to Mitú by air or water. Mitú has a
tropical rainforest climate with both high humidity figures and high
precipitation figures all year round. However, most precipitation
falls in the form of showers in the morning and evening.
Temperatures are high all year round.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
