Kauai is very diverse, with huge areas of tropical forest, deserted coast and green mountains. The northern part of the island is the rainiest, which helps create the lush, tropical, wild terrain and cascading waterfalls this island is known for. A typical weather forecast for Kauai is "morning rains, followed by sunny skies." As with many parts of Hawaii, Kauai's climate varies according to location. Mount Waialeale, near the center of the island, is known as the wettest spot on earth. The driest area on the island is the southwestern part. Kauai has the gentle temperatures typical of Hawaii year-round, with highs in the low 80s and lows in the 60s. Farther north and west than the other Hawaiian Islands, Kauai enjoys northerly trade winds year round. Severe storms, such as hurricanes, are rare on Kauai, but the possibility does exist.
