Traveller notes on Palomino in October
Notes from nearby Cali (85 km away)
Palomino doesn't have its own notes for October yet — these are about Cali, close enough to share the season.
Cali-forum threads on October weather (part of the broader Colombia-in-October discussion) describe a fairly predictable daily rhythm rather than a washed-out month: a clear morning, then one to three hours of heavy rain, followed by a fresh, cooled-down afternoon. Posters are consistent that being inside the rainy season doesn't mean constant rain - it just means more rain days on average, with the actual disruption to a day's plans usually limited to that single afternoon window. One regular comparing Cali to other Colombian cities calls it a bit hotter but otherwise not too bad. The standing advice is simply to schedule outdoor plans for morning or evening and treat the early-afternoon rain as a built-in break rather than a lost day. The record: 28.5C days feeling like a sticky 32C, 19.3C nights, a notably high 346mm across 25.8 days, 83 percent humidity and 7.3 hours of sun - the wettest entry on Cali's whole calendar, exactly matching the rainy-season framing.

Strong currents at the beach
