Climate
Between January and May the humidity level is at 50-60%, so quite high. In the north of Gambia, between February and May, the climate is characterised by the Harmattan which are very dry, dusty winds, this adds a haze to the air/atmosphere making it difficult to see and it also puts a sheet of fine dust particles (from the Sahara and Sahel deserts) over the entire land.
