Barbados faces 80 more days above 30C by mid-century, longer dry spells

A regional climate analysis projects Barbados will experience up to 80 additional days above 30°C annually by mid-century, alongside dry spells extending to four months per year. The study highlights a shift toward a hotter, drier 'new normal' for the island, with implications for water security, agriculture, and infrastructure resilience. The findings are based on regional modeling, but specific emission scenarios and confidence intervals are not detailed in the report.
