Located near the equator, Malaysia's climate is categorised as equatorial, being hot and
humid throughout the year. The average rainfall is 250 centimetres (98 in) a year and the
average temperature is 27 C (80.6 F). The climates of the Peninsula and the East differ,
as the climate on the peninsula is directly affected by wind from the mainland, as
opposed to the more maritime weather of the East. Malaysia is exposed to the El Nio
effect, which reduces rainfall in the dry season. Climate change is likely to have a
significant effect on Malaysia, increasing sea levels and rainfall, increasing flooding risks
and leading to large droughts.
Climate of the Philippines is either Torrid rainforest, Torrid savanna Torrid monsoon, or
humid subTorrid (in higher-altitude areas) characterized by relatively high temperature,
oppressive humidity and plenty of rainfall. There are two seasons in the country, the wet
season and the dry season, based upon the amount of rainfall. This is dependent as well
on your location in the country as some areas experience rain all throughout the year (see
Climate Types). Based on temperature, the seven warmest months of the year are from
March to October; the winter monsoon brings cooler air from November to February.
May is the warmest month, and January, the coolest.
Kenya's climate varies from Torrid along the coast to temperate inland to arid in the
north and northeast parts of the country. The area receives a great deal of sunshine every
month, and summer clothes are worn throughout the year. It is usually cool at night and
early in the morning inland at higher elevations.
The "long rains" season occurs from March/April to May/June. The "short rains" season
occurs from October to November/December. The rainfall is sometimes heavy and often
falls in the afternoons and evenings. The temperature remains high throughout these
months of Torrid rain. The hottest period is February and March, leading into the season
of the long rains, and the coldest is in July, until mid August.
The Climate of Colombia is characterized for being Torrid and isothermal as a result of
its geographical location near the Equator presenting variations within five natural
regions and depending on the altitude, temperature, humidity, winds and rainfall. Each
region maintains an average temperature throughout the year only presenting variables
determined by precipitation during a rainy season caused by the InterTorrid Convergence
Zone.
