Here is a quote from the website Noontime.com, which provides information to sailors:
"The Bahamian climate is very pleasant, lying on the edge of the
anticyclone belt. The weather is particularly pleasant in summer, between
June and October, when it is cooler than the eastern seaboard of the USA
or in the Eastern Caribbean islands. Unfortunately this is also the rainy
season and the hurricane season, which lasts from July to November.
Although several years can go by without a hurricane affecting The
Bahamas, occasionally one might hit, such as Hurricane Floyd in 1999,
which caused extensive damage to some of the islands. In winter, cold
fronts bring a greater variety of wind directions but it is still pleasantly
warm and dry."
