India is a vast country and therefore it is not surprising to learn that it is characterized by many climate types. Speaking of the climate in North India, we are sure to come across many interesting variations while touring the region.
Summers in North India last from March to July and are quite warm. The temperature starts rising rapidly as the vertical rays of the sun reach the Tropic of Cancer. May is the hottest month in north India when the maximum temperature rises up to more than 40° C.
Monsoon in north India arrives around June and brings in the much-needed relief from the immense heat. However, the monsoon season is a very bad time to tour North India. Wildlife enthusiasts should be warned in advance that the most of the wildlife sanctuaries and parks remain closed during monsoons.
Speaking of winter in north India, the temperature gradually starts falling after September as the vertical rays of the sun move to the south of the equator. In fact, this is one of the best times to travel to North India. It really gets very cold during the months of December and January when the temperature hovers around freezing point in many parts of Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and the areas around Delhi. Meanwhile, states like Kashmir receive significant snowfall during the winter months.
It is always advisable to have a good knowledge about the climate in North India as you prepare to tour the region. This would really prove to be very useful, keeping in mind the variations you are sure to encounter.
