Climate chart - Aurangabad
The climate of Aurangabad (formerly Khadki) is tropical, with a rainy season from June to October, due to the monsoon, and a dry season from November to May. The rains usually end in early or mid-October.
The city is located in south-central India, in the state of Maharashtra, at almost 20 degrees north latitude and 580 meters (1,900 feet) above sea level.
Due to the distance from the sea, the rains are not abundant, moreover, the dry season is long, so the landscape is semi-arid.
Before the monsoon the temperature rises, and from April to early June, on the hottest days, it can reach 43/44 °C (109/111 °F).
On the other hand, owing to the altitude, nights are cool from November to March, and can sometimes be even a bit cold when air masses come from the north. In January 2003 and December 2018, the temperature dropped to 5.8 °C (42.4 °F).
Aurangabad is in the path of tropical cyclones. Typically, cyclones occur from April to December, with two intensity peaks before and after the monsoon (from late April to early June and in October-November). Since we are far from the coast, the city is not hit by cyclones at full strength, however, they can bring heavy rainfall.
Best Time
The best time to visit Aurangabad is from November to January, being the least hot within the dry season. By February, the temperature begins to rise, and in some years it can get very hot already in this month.
