How does weather in Tripura’s hills differ from weather in its lowlands?

In Tripura, the climate is characterized by distinct temperature variations between the lowland plains and the elevated regions. While the lowlands experience warmer conditions—with maximum daily temperatures reaching the low 90s F (about 33 °C) during the peak months of April and May—the hill regions remain cooler throughout the year.1

The state's overall climate is influenced by the monsoon, which brings the majority of the annual 80 inches (2,000 mm) of rainfall between June and September. While the lowlands, such as the Agartala Plain, are part of the broader Ganges and Brahmaputra river basin lowlands, the Tripura Hills provide a higher-altitude environment that mitigates the intensity of the heat found in the lower-lying areas.12
