Climate chart - Pune
The climate of Pune (or Poona) is tropical, with a rainy season from June to October, due to the monsoon, and a dry season from November to May. On average, the monsoon in Pune runs from 10 June to 11 October.
The city is located in south-central India, in the state of Maharashtra, at the confluence of the Mutha and Mula rivers, at 18 degrees north latitude and 570 meters (1,870 feet) above sea level. A little to the north is the city of Pimpri-Chinchwad, which has the same climate as Pune. Instead, on the coast, about 110 km (70 mi) to the north-west is the city of Mumbai.
Due to the altitude and the proximity of the mountains, in winter there are strong temperature variations between night and day, and at night it can get cold. In February 2012, the temperature dropped to 4.6 °C (40.3 °F).
Before the monsoon the temperature rises, and from April to early June, on the hottest days, it can exceed 40 °C (104 °F). In late April 2019 it reached 43 °C (109.5 °F).
Although the distance from the coast of the Arabian Sea is not great, the summer monsoon comes only in part because it is hampered by the Western Ghats, the coastal range. Furthermore, the dry season is long, so the landscape is semi-arid.

Pune

Pune 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). This area of India is generally not directly affected by cyclones, which tend to pass to the north or the south, moreover, the mountains partly protect the city from wind and heavy rains, which produce the most intense effects on the coast.

Best Time



The best time to visit Pune is from November to January, being the least hot within the dry season. In February, the temperature begins to rise and it can already be very hot.
