Therefore, visiting Chandigarh during this month is only recommended for those tourists who are comfortable in near zero temperatures, especially during early mornings / late nights. Carrying adequate clothing is highly recommended, especially for children.
February	Very Cold	This month is also rather cold, but the fog does start dissipating during the day, leaving clear blue skies behind. There is plenty of sunshine but it is mostly weak in intensity. Carrying light woolens is recommended during this weather. Those tourists who want to go and enjoy a bit of sightseeing can certainly do so in this month. The nights are still chilly, so woolens are recommended for tourists.
March	Moderately cold	This is among the best months to visit the city if not the best. In March, tourists coming to Chandigarh are greeted with warm days, clear blue skies and the City Beautiful coming into full bloom. The nights are still a bit chilly, but this month is more or less the beginning of the transition to the summers. The days keep getting progressively warmer towards the end of the month.
April	Moderately Hot	It is in this month that the temperature begins heating up as is typical in this region. The days are rather warm and sunny, making sunscreen important for tourists who decide to brave the rising temperature and get some sightseeing done before the sun really decides to get cooking.
May	Very Hot	Chandigarh is known for its extremely hot summers. The daytime temperature can easily exceed the threshold for heat many tourists claim to have. Therefore, it is advised to stay indoors in the day if you are visiting this region in this month. A strong sunscreen is a must for those going out even for a while. The nights are also warm and many tourists might require (easily available) accommodation with air conditioning.
June	Very Hot	This is the month wherein the monsoons start making their presence felt as the summers reach their peak. The ever rising humidity leads to days feeling hotter than they are, becoming rather unpleasant for those tourists hailing from colder places and who want to go out in the day and check out the cityâ€™s landmarks. Throughout the month, monsoon showers start increasing in frequency approaches.
