Chiang Mai has a tropical climate, but is
cooler and less humid than elsewhere in Thailand.
Chiang Mai experiences monsoons. The south-west
monsoon arrives from India at the end of May
and lasts through until November, with the
heaviest downpours being experienced in September.
Rain usually occurs in the late afternoon.
Between November and May cool air blows in
from China and northern Vietnam, bringing
a dry season with mild days and balmy nights.
Temperatures are at their lowest in December/January,
and it is chilly enough to require a warm
jacket. |
