THAILAND WEATHER CLIMATE

Thailand has a tropical climate with three seasons although the climatic shifts are not necessarily appreciable to temperate-clime visitors, for whom it may seem hot and humid all year round. Governing the climate are the alternating southwest and northeast monsoons, steady winds which each blow for roughly six months of the year and so cause wet and dry seasons.

The rainy season runs from June to October, the (relatively) cool dry season lasts from November to February, the hot season is from March to May.
