Climate


Mengla has a tropical savanna climate (Köppen Aw) with strong monsoonal influences. Summer is long and there is virtually no "winter" as such; instead, there is a dry season (December thru April) and wet season (May thru October). The coolest month is December, averaging 18.4 °C (65.1 °F), while the warmest is June, at 26.7 °C (80.1 °F); the annual mean is 23.43 °C (74.2 °F). However, high temperatures reach their peak in April before the onset of the monsoon from the Indian Ocean.
