The climate of Chhattisgarh is defined by a monsoon weather pattern, which dictates the state's three primary seasons:
- Summer: Occurs from March to May. This season is characterized as hot, dry, and windy, with temperatures frequently exceeding 85 °F (30 °C) and sometimes rising above 100 °F (30s °C).1
- Rainy Season: Spans from June to September, driven by the southwest monsoon. This period accounts for the majority of the state's annual precipitation, which typically totals between 47 and 60 inches.1
- Winter: Occurs from November to February. This season is generally dry and pleasant, with high temperatures reaching the upper 70s °F (mid-20s °C). While most rain falls during the monsoon, the northern part of the state also experiences significant rainfall during December and January.1
