Summer Season
Summer is the hottest, longest and, in some respects, the most trying season in India. It begins generally in the middle of March and lasts almost until the end of June.
During the earlier part of this season, the weather is dry, mild, and agreeable. However, every day it gets warmer and warmer until in May and June the heat becomes intolerable.
The sun’s rays are so strong that it is almost impossible to stir out during the middle of the day; while sometimes a hot wind blows all the day long, scorching the faces of men and choking them with dust.
Fruits of various lands ripen in the long summer days. Summer is also a time for holidays, colleges, schools, and most educational institutions remain closed for two months during summer.
