Climate chart - Nauru
The climate of Nauru (formerly Pleasant Island), a small island of the Pacific Ocean located at the Equator, is equatorial, hot and humid throughout the year, with no dry season.
Average temperatures are very stable during the year: lows hover around 25.5/26 °C (78/79 °F) and highs around 31/31.5 °C (88/89 °F). Sometimes, however, the temperature can reach 33/34 °C (91/93 °F).
Here are the average temperatures.

As for the rains, we can distinguish a rainier period from December to April, when more than 150 millimeters (6 inches) fall per month, with a maximum 250 mm (10 in) or more per month from December to February, and a drier period from May to November, when, however, still from 100 to 150 mm (4 to 6 in) of rain fall per month.
Precipitation amounts to around 2,000 mm (80 in) per year. Rainfall can vary from year to year; in fact, it can sometimes rain a lot even in the least rainy season. However, June is the month that historically has had the lowest rainfall records. There may also be periods of drought, in the years of La Niña, and this can create problems because there are no rivers in Nauru.
The rains occur in the form of showers or thunderstorms, which may be intense, but do not last long, so the sun has always a chance to shine.
Here is the average precipitation.

Since at the Equator there is no Coriolis effect, which is necessary to give life to cyclonic vortices, Nauru is outside of the path of tropical cyclones.
