Midnapore experiences scorching summers from March to June. The temperature can soar up to 45 degrees Celsius, making outdoor activities challenging. The dry, hot wind adds to the discomfort, especially during afternoons. While the Ghats offer some respite, overall, it's tough to bear the extreme heat. If you plan a visit during these months, relax by the riverside at Ghats like Kangsabati River, Subarnarekha River, or even take a boat ride to enjoy the cool breeze. Do try the local delicacy, Mishti Doi, to beat the heat.
The monsoon season in Midnapore starts from July and lasts till October. With an average temperature ranging between 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, the region experiences moderate to heavy rainfall. The level of the rivers rises, creating a mesmerizing sight at the Ghats. The lush green surroundings and blooming flowers add to the beauty of the place. However, be cautious while near water bodies due to slippery paths. Witnessing the rivers in full flow during the monsoon season is an exhilarating experience.
The best time to visit Midnapore is during the winter season, from November to February. With temperatures ranging between 5 to 15 degrees Celsius, this period offers a pleasant climate for exploring the city. The cool breeze in the evenings provides a perfect setting to relax by the riverside. Take a boat ride on the rivers like Kangsabati River or Subarnarekha River to witness the glittering sunrise. Visit places of worship like Durga Temple, New Vishwanath Temple, and ISKCON Temple to seek blessings. Don't miss the evening Ganga Aarti, a magical experience with oil lamps lighting up the riverbank.
