As far as the amount of rainfall is concerned, Haiti gets around 508 mm in the North West of the country, but 1,346 mm in regions such as Port-au-Prince. In general, with regard to wetness, the North coast is wetter than the South. During the afternoon, the moist North East trade winds are pulled towards the interior of the country across the mountains, and this causes the humidity to be a bit less along the Caribbean coast of the country. There are periodic draughts and floods that affect the country, which are aggravated due to deforestation and improper planning of natural resources.
