How is the weather in India?
India's weather is diverse and characterised by three main seasons. During summer (March to June), temperatures soar in the north, while coastal areas can be humid. The monsoon season (June to September) brings heavy rainfall, especially in central and northern regions. Winters (October to February) are mild to cool, with colder temperatures in the north. India's climate varies widely across its states, with coastal areas experiencing different conditions than the northern regions, which may even see snowfall. Checking the specific weather forecast for your destination will help you pack appropriately for the prevailing conditions.
What kind of clothes should I bring for my medical trip?
When packing for your medical trip, consider the climate of the region you'll be visiting in India. If you're travelling to a warmer area, bring lightweight and breathable clothing, such as cotton shirts, shorts, and comfortable walking shoes. For cooler regions or during the winter months, pack layers, including sweaters or light jackets. Modesty is generally appreciated, so having a mix of conservative attire, such as long sleeves and pants, is advisable, especially when visiting religious or cultural sites. Checking the weather forecast for your travel dates will help ensure you pack appropriately for the conditions.
