Weather in Alappuzha in February

A good month. February works. It is not the peak, but nothing about it fights you. Highs average 31.1 °C, lows 26.6 °C, and rain falls on 5 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

February ranks 3 of 12 in Alappuzha. Only January scores clearly higher, and the difference is small enough to be settled by price rather than weather.

Rain falls on only 5 days, so an itinerary with no wet-weather fallback is a reasonable risk. Pack for 31.1 °C days and 26.6 °C nights; the spread matters more here than any single number.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 24 days top 30 °C, making the heat continuous rather than occasional; the day barely swings — 4.5 °C between the overnight low and the afternoon high. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest February day reached 34.8 °C and the coldest night fell to 23.3 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 31 mm — roughly 94% of the month's rain in one day.

This is the volatile part. February rainfall has ranged from 0 mm to 140 mm across the twenty years measured — a 140 mm spread around an average of 33 mm. The average is real but almost no individual February looks like it, so treat the figure as the middle of a wide range rather than a forecast.

Wind is light at 8.7 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 65%.

How February sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 30 °C in January, 31.1 here, 31.6 in March. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much. Rain is the thing that moves: March brings 5 days more of it, so the earlier half of a flexible trip is the safer half.

Daylight in February

Alappuzha sits close enough to the equator that daylight barely moves all year — 11.8 hours in February, against a range of just 1.1 hours across the whole calendar. Sunrise and sunset land at roughly the same time whenever you come.

Sea temperature

The sea sits at about 28.8 °C in February — warm enough that the water offers no relief from the heat. The sea peaks at 30.2 °C in April and bottoms out at 27.2 °C — water lags the air by a month or two, which is why the best swimming often comes after the best weather.

How busy it gets

Busy. Popular without being frantic; book the things you care about, improvise the rest.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

February in Alappuzha versus nearby

If Alappuzha is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Munnar is a better bet in February — 5 °C cooler, 2 days less rain. Teni is close enough to be a coin toss — 2.5 °C warmer, 3 days less rain.

So: February works, with January the better month by 11 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
