Thailand Climate and Weather
Thailand is located between vast areas of land and water, so it is impacted by both the summer and the winter monsoons. As a result, Thai weather consists of six months of rainfalls during the wet season, three months of dry and cooling breezes during the winter, and three months of heat during the summer. The average temperature of Thailand ranges from 18 to 38°C.
