Climate
of Jaipur:-
Jaipur has extreme climate very much like the
northern parts of India. There is a large variation in
temperature scales for summers and winters. In summers
the temperature rises to a good above 40 °C and in
winters drops to about 8 °C. In winters the temperature
goes to a maximum of 22 °C. It is quite hot in summers
and the winters are chilly. However, the intervening period
between October and March is the best in Jaipur.
The city receives little rainfall throughout the year.
An average rainfall of 64 centimetres is received by
the old city. Monsoon starts in the third week of July,
but the state does not experience much of rainy days.
In late June come the monsoon which provides great relief.
It is preceded by dust and thunderstorms while the post-monsoon
season in September is followed by another hot spell.
The cold winter evenings are accompanied with fog that
envelops the city in the evening. As such there is less
visibility which hampers the traffic in and around the
city.
