Weather in Ho Chi Minh City
Ho Chi Minh City has a tropical wet and dry climate characterised by its two distinct seasons; the dry season and the rainy season.
Temperatures vary little throughout the year, making it a year-round holiday destination. During the dry season (November until April), temperatures can lurch as high as 35°C (95°F) but usually average 28°C (82°F). The hottest month is April (35ºC/ 95ºF) while the coolest month is December (22ºC/ 72ºF) which is still a comfortable temperature.
Average annual rainfall is 190mm (7.5 inches) and the rainy season is between May and October. July is the wettest month on average and showers are normally over in a couple of hours. In the run-up to the rainy season, the humidity increases dramatically and sightseeing can be quite exhausting.
The Mid-Autumn Festival (held on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, usually September) can be quite a spectacle but hotels are often full.
