The hot and dry season is from March to June and April is the hottest month across the country. At this time temperatures in Bangkok average around 34 degrees centigrade, but can often reach 40 degrees centigrade with high humidity levels. From July to October is the monsoon season when most of Thailand's annual rainfall is accumulated. Overall the southern parts of Thailand get the most rain with around 2400 mm every year, compared to the central and northern regions of Thailand, both of which see around 1400 mm. From November to February the northeast monsoon blows cool, dry air which serves as a respite from the heat. During this cool season, the temperature ranges from 18 to 32 degrees centigrade in Bangkok, while in northern and northeast Thailand, temperatures can get quite cool with morning temperatures as low as 8 degrees centigrade with the occasional 20 degree day. Nights can be particularly chilly and at high altitudes, the temperature sometimes drops below freezing.
