India’s weather is dominated by the monsoon, with the live forecast above showing current conditions across the subcontinent. From the Himalayan chill in the north to tropical humidity along the coast, temperatures vary widely today.

What is the current weather pattern across India?

India’s vast size means a single forecast doesn’t cover it. In the north, including Delhi and the Punjab plains, winter temperatures can drop below 5°C at night, while summer afternoons often exceed 40°C. The southwest monsoon (June–September) brings heavy rain to the west coast and northeast, with the interior remaining drier. For a detailed view of today’s cloud and rain bands, check the India weather map.

What is the typical weather in India by season?

India has three main seasons. The cool, dry winter (December–February) sees temperatures in Delhi around 7–20°C, while the south stays warmer. The pre-monsoon summer (March–June) is hot everywhere, with heatwaves common in Punjab and central India. The monsoon (June–September) delivers 80% of annual rain in many regions. For a broader picture, see India weather yearly averages. For a short-range outlook, consult the weather in India 10 days forecast.
