The park's climate is characterized by warm summers and mild winters. In the summer, average highs are in the 90�s F. In the winter the average highs are in the 50�s and 60�s F. Intense thunderstorms occur in the summer, posing the danger of lighting in higher areas and of flash floods in low lying areas.
The cave climate is cool and varies little from the annual 56� F / 13� C average. A light jacket or sweater, and comfortable shoes with rubber soles for good traction are appropriate year-round.
