Climate in Kerala

In the land handpicked by National Geographic Traveler as one of the ten paradises of the world. Washed by a 600 kilometre long coastline and carpeted by some of the last remaining stretches of tropical evergreen rainforests. Blessed by a unique network of backwaters that criss cross the picturebook villages. Cooled by mist-clad hill stations and spice gardens that stretch endlessly.

A salubrious climate makes travelling even more pleasant. Except for the monsoon season from June to August, Kerala offers fresh air and sunshine all through the year. Which also means you have at least nine months of fair weather to enjoy. A picture-perfect scenario!

Often referred to as the tropical paradise, Kerala’s climate is tropical and equable in nature. This is mainly because it lies in the tropical region. It is heavily influenced by the seasonal heavy rains brought by the monsoon. Kerala’s average maximum daily temperature is around 33 °C; the minimum is 19.8 °C...

During the summer season, which lasts from April to June, temperatures hover around 33°C. It is hot and humid during this season. The south west monsoon arrives in June and continues till September. Rain erupts with the massive storm that sweeps off from the Arabian Sea. July is usually a time of heavy downpour. So, from June until September Kerala experiences very wet yet hot conditions. The retreating monsoon with the prevailing winds from the north east lasts from October to end of November. This is the second annual rainfall lighter than its predecessor. Winter in Kerala lasts from December to February. With the arrival of winter there is certain drop in the temperature and you can feel a slight chill due to the cold wind. Its only in the hilly regions of the Idukki district that warm clothing maybe required in winter. In other parts the climate is pleasant during this time and people are relieved of the humid weather.

Kerala's rains are mostly the result of seasonal monsoons. The rainforest areas of the state have humid tropical wet climate while the extreme eastern fringes experience a drier tropical wet and dry climate .Kerala receives an average annual rainfall of 3107 mm. Parts of Kerala's lowlands may receive an average of only 1250 mm rainfall annually while the cool mountainous eastern highlands of Idukki district — comprising Kerala's wettest region receives more than 5,000 mm. In summers, most of Kerala is prone to gale-force winds, storm surges, and torrential downpours accompanying dangerous cyclones coming in from the Indian Ocean.

Even though Kerala is a year round destination, the best time to visit Kerala is ideally between October and March when the skies are clear and there’s least humidity. Beach holiday is not recommended during the rainy seasons because of the high tides and crashing waves. However, the monsoon season is the best time to undergo Ayurvedic treatments. Of late, monsoon tourism in Kerala is becoming the novelty. Its an enthralling feel to revel in the showers amidst lush green surroundings. The intoxicating smell of the dry earth getting drenched, the splashing waters and the tiny paper boats sailing on, all go a long way to bring out the child in you to crave to go out and get drenched in the drizzle.
