Climate overview
Temperature
Monthly mean temperature is lowest at 17.9 °C in January, then reaches its highest monthly mean of 28.4 °C in June. These are averages for whole months, not daytime highs, so they describe the broad temperature backdrop rather than the range visitors may experience from hour to hour. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 25.2 °C. It is a useful summary of the supplied monthly averages, but it is not a day-weighted annual average and does not show how temperatures fluctuate within any individual month.
Rain
Mean daily rainfall reaches its highest monthly average, 10.36 mm/day, in June; visitors then may want rain-ready clothing and flexible plans for outdoor activities. The lowest monthly mean is 0.17 mm/day in January, which can suit travellers prioritising lower average rainfall, though it does not guarantee dry days or indicate how often rain occurs. The unweighted mean across the monthly daily-rainfall averages is 5.03 mm/day. These are daily mean amounts, not monthly rainfall totals, and the average alone cannot describe the timing or duration of rain on a particular visit.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine is highest at 10.24 hours/day in April, while its lowest monthly mean is 7.61 hours/day in July. Those figures can help with planning daylight outdoor activities, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not promise clear conditions on a given day. The unweighted mean of the monthly sunshine averages is 8.99 hours/day per day. It provides a broad reference across the year, rather than a prediction of sunshine for specific dates.
Best Travel Time Guide for Dhaka, Bangladesh: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights
If cooler monthly-average conditions are your priority, January is the point to consider, when the monthly mean temperature is 17.9 °C; remember that this does not specify daytime highs or the temperatures on your chosen dates.

For outdoor plans that benefit from more average sunshine, April has the highest monthly mean at 10.24 hours/day per day. Sunshine duration does not establish day length or guarantee clear skies, so keep plans adaptable.
In June, mean daily rainfall reaches 10.36 mm/day, making rain-ready layers and some flexibility sensible considerations for travel weather and outdoor sightseeing. This is a monthly daily average, not a monthly total or a measure of rain frequency; the figures cannot tell you whether rain will fall during a particular excursion.
