Weather
The climate of Gujarat is moist in the southern districts and
dry in the northern region. The Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Cambay
reduce the temperature and render the climate more pleasant and
healthy. The year can be divided into the winter season from November
to February, the hot season from March to May, the south-west monsoon
season from June to September and the intervening month of October. The semi-desert area of Kutch has a very low average rainfall. Certain areas in Ahmedabad, Mehsana, Banaskantha, Panchmahals, Surendranagar, Jamnagar and Kutch districts face chronic scarcity conditions for want of adequate rains. As the Tropic of Cancer passes through the northern border of
Gujarat, the state has an intensely hot or cold climate. But, the
Arabian sea and the Gulf of Cambay in the west and the forest covered
hills in the east soften the rigors of climatic extremes.
