II READING
Read about the climate in Madagascar on a travel website. Then circle true or false.
Madagascar – When to go
Madagascar has two seasons, a warm, wet season from November to April, and a cooler dry
season between May and October. However, different parts of the country have very different
weather.
The east coast is hotter and wetter, with up to 4000mm of rainfall per year. In the rainy season,
there are strong winds, and these can cause a lot of damage. Avoid visiting eastern Madagascar
between January and March because the weather can make road travel very difficult. The dry
season is cooler and more pleasant.
The high, central part of the country is much drier and cooler. About 1,400 mm of rain falls in
the rainy season, with some thunderstorms, but the summer is usually sunny and dry, but it can
be cold, especially in the mornings, with freezing showers, and it may snow in mountain areas
above 2,400m, and even stay there for several days.
The west coast is the driest part of the island. Here, the winter months are pleasant with little
rain, cooler temperatures and blue skies. The summers can be extremely hot, especially in the
southwest. This part of the country is semi-desert, and only gets around 300mm of rain per
year.
