Ocho Rios is one of the drier regions in Jamaica but, much like other parts of this island, the wet and dry seasons are still recognized. The wet season starts around July and ends in October. While the wet season will probably be just as sunny, you can expect a few partly cloudy days with showers here and there. The dry season tends to feature more consistent weather and less possibility of rain.
During the wet season, the month of October tends to see a bit more rainfall but this isn't always significant. The rain comes and goes as it pleases, and sometimes it can be welcome to cool off on a super hot day. If you already have your flight booked for October or intend to travel during that time, keep in mind that it is uncommon for rain to last for extensive periods in Jamaica. Once cloudy conditions go away, the sunshine will be right back and so will the warm temperatures.
