Rate the Climate : Pune, Maharashtra (hot, warm, average, days)

[dhdh]

This one is for heat lovers who like some variety.

A strange feature of this climate is that :

-"Winter" has the lowest lows
-Spring has the highest highs
-Summer has the highest lows
-Autumn has the lowest highs

so each season is extreme in at least one regard.


It's a tough one to rate. There's no part of the year I would hate (aside from some April days) but there is no part I would fully enjoy either. Winter nights are too cold. Spring days are too hot. Summer is too cloudy and lukewarm. Only October, then March, then June are truly appealing.


Nevertheless, due to strong sunshine, great high temps, 6 months of warm night temps, I will go for a B.

Not the worst India has to offer by any means. I'll be generous here and give a D-, it's no worse than Mt. Isa with only three really oppressive months in the build up to the monsoon. It is nearly perpetual summer though, and really only the lows in Dec, Jan and Feb save it from an F. F's should be reserved for the worst of the worst, which in my case are places that feature heat and humidity year round with no respite, such as Singapore.

B+... very nice, warm year round , but enough variety in temps to kep one excited, and a fair amount of storm/monsoon activity aswell.

B... too hot in summer.

B. If around 7-8C were subtracted from the average maximums it would be a very nice climate but too hot for me. The sunshine hours are great, and the marked wet and dry seasons would be interesting though.

A- winter minimums are too low and the temps in the build-up to the monsoon are a bit over the top but otherwise a fantastic climate!
