Answer:

The tropical wet and dry climate

Step-by-step explanation:

The tropical wet and dry climate is also known as tropical savanna climate. This area has direct sunlight almost throughout the whole year. This is why here the seasons are not distinct and are separated on the wet and dry seasons.

The temperatures are always hotter than above the average throughout the year, often not dropping below 13 °C, even during what would be considered to be winter months.

When the sun is high, the temperature is still not too hot due to rainfalls occurring mostly during these months. The rain is mostly following thunders and stormy and windy weather.

Tropical wet and dry climate occurs in the area below the equator, including the Northern Territory in Australia, Brasilia, and parts of Indonesia, Kenya, Ghana, and Nigeria.
