Погода: Джодхпур, июнь

Forum posters are unanimous that June is brutally hot in Jodhpur - the self-styled 'Sun City' - with daytime temperatures commonly hitting 45C and the air staying uncomfortably warm even well into the evening (9-10pm). April through June is named as Rajasthan's hottest stretch generally, and posters are candid that daytime sightseeing isn't realistic this time of year - the standard advice is an early-morning start, indoor or air-conditioned activities through midday, and a return to sightseeing only once evening brings some relief. The clear upside for anyone still willing to visit: significantly discounted hotel rates during this genuine low season, provided the accommodation and any transport have reliable air conditioning.

Regulars are specific daytime temperatures in this city commonly reach 30 to 35C, genuinely dry heat rather than the humid kind, with landing in the first couple of weeks the standard advice for beating the worst of it before the month's later heat builds. Our row backs that hot, genuinely dry read, 34.4C reading as a hot 33C, over 18.6C nights feeling 16C, with rain essentially absent, 3.2mm across under a day, and humidity down to just 30 percent. Regulars are consistent late in the month brings meaningfully better hotel rates and thinner crowds than the October-through-February peak season, the tradeoff being real afternoon heat by then. Sun protection and a slower midday pace remain the standard advice throughout. The record: 10.9 hours of sun, a 15.7 kph wind and AQI 71.

Regulars call this one of the best months to visit Rajasthan, describing days warm enough for a single shirt and nights that turn properly nippy - a pattern that sharpens as the month goes on, late November running noticeably colder in the evenings than its start. Our row carries a warmer daytime figure than some individual trip reports remember, 32C reading as 31C, though the overnight side matches closely at 15.5C. Rain has essentially stopped, 4.2mm across well under a day, and the air is dry at 45.3 percent humidity - the desert making itself felt in the temperature swing between an afternoon in the sun and an evening at the fort. The record: 9.9 hours of sun, an 11.9 kph wind and AQI 99.

Jodhpur-forum threads asking if early May is simply too hot get a consistent answer: yes, genuinely, with temperatures regularly clearing 40C, but posters call it manageable rather than a reason to skip the visit entirely if a traveler plans around it. The standing advice is the same across threads - schedule the fort and old-city walking for early morning or evening, book a hotel and car with reliable air conditioning, treat 11am-4pm as strictly indoor time. Regulars describe the heat as intensely dry rather than humid, more bearable than a muggier climate at the same temperature. April through August gets flagged as the season to avoid for anyone with flexible dates. The record: a blistering 41.6C by day feeling like 41C, 27.9C nights, essentially no precipitation at all, a bone-dry 31 percent humidity and 11.9 hours of sun - among the hottest entries on this destination's whole calendar.

February sits inside the October-to-March window Rajasthan regulars name, and their description of the day is two climates: a little hot in the middle of it, genuinely cold early morning and late evening, with a jacket or something woollen needed at both ends. Our row for Jodhpur is exactly that shape - 29.6C by day against 13.1C at night, at 36 percent humidity, which is desert air doing what desert air does. Rain is effectively zero, 0.6mm across 0.1 days. It is also peak season, so the forts and the old city are busy. The record: feels-like 27C by day and 10C at night, 10.3 hours of sun and AQI 83.
