Rainfall in Bermuda
There is no monsoon or rainy season in Bermuda as it is not part of the Caribbean region. However, there are occasional showers which generally do not last for long. In some months you may see more rain fall than the other, but there is generally no fixed pattern. On an average, October is the wettest month of the year with an approximate rainfall of about 6 inches, while April is the driest month with about 3 inches rainfall.
There is no fresh water lakes in Bermuda. So for water supply, the residents to a large extent depend on stored rain water. They use the limestone roofs to filter the rain water and usually store them into underground reservoir. Then pump them to overhead tanks to get water supply in the house.
Bermuda annual rain fall is enough for the homes to plan water supply and also for sustaining the lush green foliage of the island.

Bermuda Hurricane
Hurricanes are the strong storms that go in circles. Hurricane season in Bermuda is from June to November. But don't worry. Usually, hurricanes in Bermuda are not as frequent or dangerous as in the Caribbean islands. They hit the US coast more than they hit Bermuda.
This is because of two reasons:
1. The National Hurricane Center of Bermuda with its advanced technology is able to forecast and accurately pinpoint such hurricane spots and notify all well in advance. This allows all hotels, homes and other establishments to take ample measures in time.
2. By Law, all Bermuda buildings need to use limestone rocks or concrete blocks for their construction so that they are hurricane resistant.
June to November is the hurricane season in Bermuda. Check out Bermuda Hurricane to know all about hurricanes in Bermuda, past history of hurricanes in the island and the impact they caused.

Bermuda Environment
There is a good news for those who suffer from Hay Fever. Bermuda can be a great place for them. Because the Rag weeds do not exist in Bermuda's air and pollens are quickly blown off to the sea.
However, since the humidity in Bermuda is generally quite high, there is always mold, mildews and mites breeding which can have some adverse affect for those who are allergic to these.
