Going to a new place is stressful in itself and being unaware of its climate can invite more unwanted stress. So, in this article we’ll talk about the climate of the city of Kota so that you can be well prepared. Along with it, we’ll include tips to make your Kota journey easier.

Summers- Probably this would be the time when you would be arriving in Kota. Summers start here as early as the April and then starts to get harsh in the upcoming months. May, June and July are equally hot and bright with massive heatwaves blowing throughout the day. Just in 2-3 days you will realise why along with Books and uniform, the coaching provided you with an umbrella.

Summer tips-

• Carry a bottle of water along with you

• Try to cover your head with umbrella or a cloth.

• Have juice and enough electrolytes.

• Save yourself from heatwave.

• Avoid moving out unnecessarily during the day

Rain- The summers are harsh. And by the end of July or August you would have surrendered to the might of the Sun. And then monsoons will bring relief to you. Monsoon in Kota is heavy. It sometimes rains continuously for a day or two.

Monsoon Tip-

• Umbrella obviously.

• Protect your books and notes from getting wet.

• Do not go to see water rushing through the gates of Chambal barrage.

• Avoid trips to Gaipernath Mahadev.

• While walking on water filled roads keep in mind for open manholes.

• Avoid going near the river bank.

• The sun would be off, therefore make sure your clothes are dried properly. There is a potent risk of fungal infections at this time.

September and October

September would be a mix of both rain and sun. The weather would be nice. You can plan for short trips of sightseeing within Kota this time. Transition to october is beautiful. Looking at the colours of the evening sky in the Chambal water on an October evening would be so peaceful. October slowly welcomes the arrival of the winter. The winds which were previously hot, then became cool and humid would now change to more cool and less humid. Just mark my words transition to October is beautiful. And October late evenings are beautiful too.

Tip-

• Time of going home would be coming near. Just don’t get distracted from excitement.

• Can try chai / coffee on weekend with friends in late october evening.

Winters- The arrival of winter in Kota does not depend on the calender. It usually starts when you come back from Diwali vacations. First the nights will start getting cold. Then the mornings and then at last the noon. Winters till mid December are moderate. And from about new year the nights and mornings start to get harsh. The winter winds directly strike the bones. Days are however not that cold. The sweatshirt provided by coaching is enough to beat the cold during the day.

Tips-

• Protect yourself from cold winds.

• Heavy quilts are not required. Heavy blanket is enough, just make sure cold winds are not entering your room.

• While going out in the night or morning wear proper clothes.

February and March

February will bid farewell to the Winters. Mornings however will continue to stay cold. March will witness Holi celebration. That would be the time you will realise that the tap water is not THAT cold and you can now stop wearing the winter clothing. To keep the fan on or off would be a tough choice to make. Just keep a leg out from the covers and you would be okay.

Tip-

• On a serious note, this is the time when almost everyone stop going to the classes. But the syllabus would still be running. So avoid making this mistake.

April and May

The most tensed time. The weather won’t matter to you now. Exams would be approaching and there would be a lot of things to revise. Just keep calm and focus. Weather now would be little warm. Not too much. Fans will do till the April and then coolers and fans will take over from May.

Tip-

• Just maintain the continuous nature of study.

• Do not demotivate or over motivate yourself.

• Make no changes in the schedule at last time. This is not the time to do experiment with mew schedules. Just continue with your already experienced schedule.

• Eat food on time.
