Air temperature in Vietnam by months. Weather in Vietnam throughout the year

Monthly weather in Vietnam

To paraphrase a famous song, we can say: there is no bad weather in Vietnam, every weather is a blessing. You can relax in Vietnam all year round, you just need to know where and at what time. And, of course, consider what type of vacation you are most interested in.

The territory of the country stretches from north to south along the coast of the South China Sea for almost 2 thousand kilometers, so it is open for beach holidays at any time of the year. When it is cold in the north, and it is winter, in the south it is the velvet season. When it is rainy and typhoon season in the south, and this is summer and autumn, it is hot in the north.

North Vietnam

In the north of Vietnam, the winter is quite cool, the temperature drops to + 8-10 C, in the mountains it can drop to +5 C. This weather in Vietnam lasts from November to April. But from May to October it is hot here, although it can be rainy, the average summer temperature is +30 C. The rains are torrential, tropical, and not lingering, so the mood will not be spoiled. It's time to come to Ha Long to swim in one of the most beautiful bays in the world, sunbathe and go diving. At this time, it is good to visit the Sapa resort, admire the flowering rice terraces.

Nha Trang

Nha Trang is located in the middle between central and southern Vietnam, so let's talk about the weather here separately. The temperature never drops as low as in the central part of the country and never rises as high as in the south.

As elsewhere, there are two seasons - dry and wet. The dry season lasts from December to March, with light rains beginning in April, and a full-fledged wet season from June. Velvet season falls on February - April. The temperature is kept within +30 C, the refreshing sea, a light breeze and no stuffiness. In June, the rainy season begins and it gets hotter. This is the weather when the sea calms down, the water temperature reaches +30 C, it rains at night or short-term - during the day. Therefore, the rainy season in Nha Trang is absolutely no reason to refuse a trip.

In October and November, winds and typhoons come, however, in Nha Trang, these are only high waves and wind. Typhoons, as a rule, bypass it. At this time, the temperature drops to +26 ─ 28 C, and there are fewer sunny days.

South Vietnam

This is the hottest area of ​​the country, especially the island of Phu Quoc. This also includes the tourist cities of Mui Ne, Vung Tau, Phan Thiet and the southern capital of Vietnam ─ Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). Here is the hottest weather in Vietnam and you can relax all year round. The temperature is stable from +27 to +35 C. The rainy season starts from the end of April and lasts until October. Just like everywhere else - these are not prolonged rains and do not interfere with rest, they go mostly at night. The peak of the wet season is June-August.

April is the least comfortable in the south for those who do not like or do not tolerate intense heat. Then it is better to go here in January-February.

Separately - about the rainy season

The rainy season continues from April to October. At this time, the weather is the hottest, especially in the south. And the rain is perceived as a relief, because it does not come often. Most often, these are night showers, when cities and nature wake up washed and refreshed in the morning. The rain starts suddenly ─ real, tropical, but it does not last long. It may not be there for a week, and then for two days it is cloudy and it rains again. That, in fact, is the entire rainy season in Vietnam. The sea is calm at this time and it is very pleasant to swim in it.

February

The north is still at the mercy of the cold. Daytime temperatures do not rise above + 14-16 C. In Nha Trang, the winds gradually subside, a stable temperature is established - about +28 C. The velvet season begins here. In the south of the country it gets hotter - up to +31 C.

March

It is getting much warmer in the capital of Vietnam, the thermometer is already showing stably + 20-22 C, but it’s not worth swimming yet. March in Nha Trang differs little from February in temperature, but the sea becomes calmer. In the south - in Ho Chi Minh City, Mui Ne and Fukuoka, the heat becomes more noticeable - up to +32 C.

April

April brings the first rains, opening the wet season. And at the same time, this is the month when a beach holiday is possible throughout the country. It is already quite warm in Hanoi + 22─27 C. True, there are often fogs in Halong Bay, but this does not interfere with a beach holiday.

Nha Trang pleases with a calmer sea and a water temperature of + 25─26 C. The daytime air temperature is about +31 C. In the southern resorts - heat, slight occasional rains and a warm sea. Temperature from +25 to +33 C.

May

In the north, a full-fledged beach season begins, despite the fact that it may rain. The temperature no longer drops below +23 C at night, and during the day it confidently stays at 31 C. It rains in Nha Trang, but at night. During the day they are rare and because of them they do not even cancel excursions. Daytime temperature is about +32 C, at night - +23─24 C. It is still hot in the south - in Mui Ne about +32 C, in Fukuoka - +33─34 C, the water is very warm.

June

The low tourist season begins due to the abundance of rains, although the heat is on the territory of the whole country - from +31 C in the north to +35 C in the south and in Nha Trang. Due to heavy rains, Central Vietnam is considered a particularly dangerous region, where devastating floods most often occur. In the north and in the south you can rest without fear. Showers do not go continuously, so there are still many sunny days.

July

July weather across the country practically does not differ from June.

August

In the north, the heat continues - up to +32 C. In Nha Trang, the average temperature is + 29-30 C, although it can rise up to +34 C.

In Fukuoka, it's time for storms.

Vietnam weather and prices by months for 2019

Here you can find information about the weather in Vietnam by months: average air and water temperatures, average monthly rainfall.

Vietnam will appear in three variations, depending on the choice of the climatic zone, because the country occupies three such segments. In addition to climatic features, weather in vietnam relief structure, seasonality and other factors influence. In the northern territory of Vietnam, the subtropics are located with their own monsoons, which leads to humid and stuffy summers and wet, not very pleasant winters. If on the plane even in winter you can count on a couple of tens of degrees in the black, then frosts are inevitable in the mountains. You can see Vietnamese snow near Shapa, a city that rises 1.5 kilometers above sea level. At the end of spring and until mid-autumn, showers and thunderstorms charge, the peak of which falls on the summer median. The heat here is characterized by +30°C on average. Weather in Vietnam northern makes it clear that April and early May, coupled with the end of autumn, are the most suitable periods to visit this territory of the country. The lack of rain and the warmth of the sea - what else do you need for a wonderful beach pastime? In the central lands of the country, the climate is almost identical to the north - the same monsoons and subtropics. But the rainy season starts later, reaching its climax by mid-autumn, i.e. while the rest of Vietnam is already dry and welcoming tourists. On the flat shores, the picture is prettier than on the eastern ridges and near Truong Son, which nature incredibly generously waters with water. The weather in Vietnam suggests the possibility of powerful floods in the central part of the country, namely, in the Chungbo region and the invasion of typhoons, subsiding as they move south. In winter, frost of twenty degrees in the minus is quite likely here. The southern part of Vietnam is a zone of tropical softness, like a bright drink with a straw, flavored with a cloud of cream. There are no gusty winds or temperature instability here. Winter is distinguished from summer by three to four degrees, and the average annual temperature in the Mekong Delta is +26°C. Wet-dry seasonal division is inherent and weather in vietnam southern. The rains fall at the end of spring and end by the end of autumn, during which time 9/10 of the rainfall norm moistens the Vietnamese south, and nothing remains for the dry period, which is fraught with drought. A fly in the ointment in this barrel of honey can be rare, but not excluded at all, typhoons.

Rain season

rainy season in vietnam lasts up to six months, but never passes simultaneously throughout the country. This allows tourists to choose those resorts where neither an umbrella nor a raincoat is needed.

Incidentally, even the rain is not that bad, as it seems. For example, at the most popular resorts in the south, they do not overshadow the rest: they go mainly at night, and during the day they are very short - half an hour - forty minutes. This time can be spent in a cafe or in a hotel. And you won't have to stay too long - the heat and the sun will replace the refreshing downpour.

The only "but": in the center and in the north of Vietnam, the weather is dominated by monsoons. They raise high waves, and sea holidays can become unsafe.

That is why beach lovers are better off opting for a southerly direction.

Undoubtedly, the weather is one of the determining factors when choosing a travel destination. If you are going to Vietnam, then there is no particular need to rack your brains with the question “When is the best time to go?”. There is no sweltering heat, as shown in the films, and the temperature is pleasant all year round. The weather in Vietnam depends a lot on which region you are in. Therefore, to the question “When is it better to go to Vietnam?” it is necessary to respond comprehensively, taking into account not only the time of year, but also the region. This will be discussed in this article.

Most of the country has a tropical monsoonal climate. The significant length of Vietnam from north to south allows you to capture several climatic zones. Thus, the weather in Vietnam changes not only from season to season, but also in different regions will be different.

Monsoons divide the climate of Vietnam into 2 seasons: from November to April with the northeast monsoon and from May to October with the southwest. And the regions are divided into 3 parts: northern, central and southern.

Weather in Vietnam depending on the monsoons

Northeast monsoon: weather in Vietnam in winter and spring

The northeast monsoon prevails in Vietnam from November to April and brings cool and dry weather. In the capital of Vietnam, Hanoi, located in the northern part of the country, the average temperature in November is 21°C. In the following months, the temperature drops even more. At this time, it is best to come to Hanoi - here the weather is warm and dry.

January is the coldest month of the year. From February the temperature begins to rise again, and in May the southwest monsoon arrives, and the temperature in Hanoi reaches 30°C.

While the northeast monsoon brings cool, dry weather with it, we remember to consider the region as well. While in Hanoi in January it is about 17°C, in Ho Chi Minh City the average is 26°C. The mountainous regions in the far north of the country are the coldest.

From November to April, there is practically no rainfall in Vietnam. December and January are the driest months in the entire country. The rainy season starts in April.

The period from December to January is considered the best time to travel to Vietnam. If you are heading to the south of the country, then avoid the hottest and most humid days that start in May. It is very sunny in the northwest of the country at this time. There is a certain chance that you will get caught in a downpour at this time, but this is the exception rather than the rule.

Southwest monsoon: weather in Vietnam in summer and autumn

From May to October, Vietnam has hot and humid weather. The rains begin in May and the amount of precipitation steadily increases until July. As a result, July and August are the rainiest months. Since September, the level of precipitation decreases. The rainy season starts from the south of the country and in about a week it reaches the northern part of Vietnam.

Also from May to October the temperature reaches its maximum. The hottest time is in April, when the dry season has not yet begun, and the temperature has already risen above 30°C. In the north of the country, it is hottest in June and July, which, combined with high humidity, causes a lot of inconvenience. Makeup literally flows off women's faces, and no deodorant can protect your armpits from getting wet. Showers have to be taken 2-3 times a day.

All this does not mean that you need to avoid Vietnam from May to October. Unstable weather is more than offset by low prices and fewer tourists. This time of year is best to travel in the northern part of the country and avoid the hilly areas. In summer and autumn, there is a lot of sun in Vietnam, the rains are torrential and end quickly, but it is likely that they will drag on for several days. This is also the typhoon season.

Weather in Vietnam depending on the region

Weather in the northern part of Vietnam

The weather in northern Vietnam tends to be colder than other countries in Southeast Asia at the same longitude. Traditionally, the seasons in Vietnam are divided into 2 periods - summer and winter, but in northern Vietnam, all 4 are sometimes distinguished: pleasant spring (usually March-April) and autumn (October-December), cold winter (December-February) and hot summer (June - July).

Weather in the central part of Vietnam

Central Vietnam is conditionally divided into 2 sub-regions - the coastal lowlands and the central highlands. In the coastal part, as a rule, there is less precipitation and higher temperatures, because. from April to October it is protected from the monsoon by Truong Son Mountains. In the winter season (from November to March), the coast is colder and more rainy, besides, it is prone to hurricanes and typhoons.

But in the central highlands during the rainy season, a double portion of precipitation, but it is not hot here throughout the year. If you like this kind of weather, then welcome to Dalat or Pleiku, two major cities in this area. Further south, the coastal cities of Qui Nhơn, Nha Trang and Phan Thiet, on the contrary, have hot weather of 21°C - 32°C all year round.

Weather in the southern part of Vietnam

South Vietnam is close to the equator and has a typical humid tropical climate that is great for growing rice. The average annual temperature fluctuates between 27-32°C. Unlike the north, there are only two main seasons: dry and rainy. During the rainy season (May to November), it rains almost every day, causing Saigon to flood the streets from time to time. In the dry season from late February to April, it is very hot here and only with the arrival of rains does it become a little cooler. Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) is especially popular from December to March. This time of the year is the most pleasant weather.

In general, the climate in Vietnam is so strongly dependent on the season and region that the average annual temperature for the entire country is completely indicative. Due to the fact that the weather in Vietnam varies depending on the region, you can come here at any time of the year and move around the country. I advise you to spend February to March in Saigon, and then gradually move north. But the choice is always yours.
