==Climate== Sassandra has a [[tropical savanna climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Aw'') with year-round very high humidity and extreme heat discomfort. Sassandra sees two rainy seasons: the main rains occur from April to July, with a second shorter and lighter rain period from October to December. There are two very distinct [[dry season]]s: a foggy, cloudy, slightly cooler dry season in August and September and a longer dry period dominated by the [[harmattan|harmattan wind]] from the [[Sahara]] between mid-December and mid-March, resulting in clearer skies than during any other part of the year. {{Weather box|width = auto |location = Sassandra (1961–1990) |metric first = yes |single line = yes |temperature colour = pastel |Jan high C = 30.1 |Feb high C = 30.1 |Mar high C = 31.0 |Apr high C = 30.9 |May high C = 29.8 |Jun high C = 27.9 |Jul high C = 27.1 |Aug high C = 26.5 |Sep high C = 27.5 |Oct high C = 28.5 |Nov high C = 29.6 |Dec high C = 29.5 |year high C = 29.0 |Jan mean C = 26.1 |Feb mean C = 26.9 |Mar mean C = 27.0 |Apr mean C = 26.5 |May mean C = 26.5 |Jun mean C = 25.4 |Jul mean C = 24.5 |Aug mean C = 24.2 |Sep mean C = 24.6 |Oct mean C = 25.5 |Nov mean C = 26.2 |Dec mean C = 26.1 |year mean C = 25.8 |Jan low C = 22.3 |Feb low C = 23.0 |Mar low C = 23.2 |Apr low C = 23.4 |May low C = 23.1 |Jun low C = 22.0 |Jul low C = 22.7 |Aug low C = 22.0 |Sep low C = 22.0 |Oct low C = 22.4 |Nov low C = 22.8 |Dec low C = 22.6 |year low C = 22.6 |rain colour = green |Jan rain mm = 15.8 |Feb rain mm = 35.7 |Mar rain mm = 52.6 |Apr rain mm = 96.9 |May rain mm = 235.1 |Jun rain mm = 529.1 |Jul rain mm = 191.4 |Aug rain mm = 32.1 |Sep rain mm = 43.6 |Oct rain mm = 84.5 |Nov rain mm = 119.6 |Dec rain mm = 72.8 |Jan sun = 208.3 |Feb sun = 192.4 |Mar sun = 211.4 |Apr sun = 218.3 |May sun = 182.5 |Jun sun = 112.1 |Jul sun = 128.8 |Aug sun = 123.8 |Sep sun = 154.4 |Oct sun = 216.0 |Nov sun = 224.2 |Dec sun = 206.2 |source 1 = NOAA<ref name= NOAA>{{Cite FTP | url = ftp://ftp.atdd.noaa.gov/pub/GCOS/WMO-Normals/TABLES/REG__I/IV/65599.TXT | server = [[National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration]] | title = Sassandra–Aero Climate Normals 1961-1990 | accessdate = December 21, 2015}}</ref> }}
