Weather In Udaipur: Monthly Temperature, Climate and Prevailing Seasons

Planning a trip to Udaipur, but still sceptical about its weather situation? Well, Worry no more. Let’s walk you through the climate and the most prevalent seasons of this wonderful oasis in the desert.

Introduction:

The royal city Udaipur is located in Rajasthan, which is India’s renowned desert state. Hence, it might surprise you that this city has yearly monsoons, and the main reason behind this is the Aravalli Range. The southern edge of the Aravalli Range separates the city from the Thar Desert. Therefore, it has semi-arid weather rather than a severe desert climate. This also means that, while May and early June are hot, the city is spared from the impact of the summer heat as compared to other cities across the state. Because of its desert location, the monsoons here are not that rainy and humid as compared to other Indian territories.
