What is the climate in Daly Waters Australia?

Daly Waters in Australia's "Top End" has a tropical climate. It is very hot and humid from mid-Spring through to late Autumn, and the region is subject to monsoons. This means that, from about October through to April, Daly waters knows just one season - the "wet season". Maximum temperatures remain in the 30s (Celsius), ranging between 32 and 38 degrees Celsius. Minimum temperatures can range from as low as 16 degrees Celsius on either end of the wet season to 25 degrees C during late spring and summer. The "dry season" begins in May and continues through the winter months, ending around September. Days and nights are both more pleasant and humidity drops to a more bearable rate.
