The renowned Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Hilo, Hawaii, are both recognized for their lush jungles and gushing waterfalls. Yet it's also renowned for having unpredictable weather, particularly when it rains. Often lasting from November to March, Hilo's rainy season can bring torrential downpours, flash floods, and strong winds. A windbreaker should be brought with you if you're traveling to Hilo during the rainy season.
Because the winds in Hilo may be fairly fierce, a windbreaker is essential during the rainy season. Strong winds that often accompany heavy rains can make it feel considerably colder than it is. You can stay dry and protected from the wind by wearing a windbreaker.
An additional benefit of a windbreaker is that it can shield you from the rain. A windbreaker is a more sensible option for Hilo's rainy season even if an umbrella is a frequent choice for rainy weather. An umbrella can easily be broken or turned inside out by the high winds. On the other hand, a windbreaker is made to endure severe winds and torrential rain.
Look for a windbreaker that is lightweight and simple to pack when selecting one for your trip to Hilo. If you're going to go trekking or exploring, especially, you don't want to be carrying around a bulky jacket. Choose a windbreaker that will fit neatly into your daypack or backpack.
