Tchibanga has a
tropical savanna climate (
Köppen climate classification Aw), typical of this region of west-central Africa and not dissimilar to
Kinshasa or
Pointe-Noire. Unlike most places with a tropical savanna climate, the dry season from June to September is exceedingly foggy and sunless due to the influence of the cold
Benguela Current. In fact, with only about 1,260 hours of sunshine per year, Tchibanga is one of the least sunny places in Africa and receives less sunshine than such cities as
London or
Juneau. ==References==
