The simple answer is OIL and Venezuela cannot currently access its most valuable resource. We need to ask President Trump how we can help Venezuela. There are millions of starving people, mostly children who will most-likely not survive winter.

Venezuela rests firmly in the tropics, making the South American country void of traditional seasons. But the mix of Caribbean coastline with the Andes Mountains and Guiana Highlands throws some variation into how the weather feels in different areas. Whether you're sweaty and miserable from heat and humidity or getting a breather in the higher elevations, the hard-and-fast rule in Venezuela is to always have an umbrella handy.
To be truly awed by the world's tallest waterfall, Angel Falls, book during the rainy season for the best access and aesthetics.
Coastline: You'll feel the tropical climate on Venezuela's shoreline, where the blue Caribbean laps at the sand, but the coastal mountains give a bit a variance to how the weather in the cities feels. Caracas is nestled in a mountain range just a few miles from the coast, so the altitude makes the climate there a bit more temperate. The average annual high temperature in the capital city is 79 degrees Fahrenheit, with variances of just a few degrees from winter to summer. More than a third of days out of the year are likely to include rain.
Mountains: The temperature gets a bit cooler the higher you climb in Venezuela. One such locale is the 16,427-foot-high Pico Bolivar, the highest Andean peak in the country and a consistently snow-capped sight in Merida state. Temperatures especially drop in the highlands at night. But the main difference between the mountains and coast isn't temperature. Annual rainfall can hit 58 inches in the mountains of Venezuela compared to 11 inches along the coast.
Extreme Weather: Venezuela isn't part of the hurricane belt, where forecasters track Atlantic storms each season, but the country feels the brunt of downpours as hurricane season roars through to the north. Those torrential rains caused widespread disaster in December 1999, when two weeks of heavy rain shook hillsides loose and sent mud and debris crashing down onto towns. Up to 30,000 people were killed, with Vargas state hit the worst. On the other extreme, a dry spell in 2010 revealed an Andes town that had been submerged since dam construction in 1985.
