Best time to visit Mexicali

Mexico · 20-year averages

Mexicali is a city of two halves. November scores 97 and September scores 30 — a 67-point swing, which is the difference between a holiday and an endurance test. The month you pick matters more here than almost anywhere. 5 of the twelve months sit within ten points of the best, so there is more than one right answer.

July is the warmest month at 44.4 °C and December the coolest at 21 °C — a 23.4 °C spread across the year. 218 days a year top 30 °C, more than a third of the calendar, so heat is the baseline here rather than a season.

Rain is spread evenly through the year — between 0 and 4 wet days in every month — so there is no dry season to aim for and no wet one to dodge. Whatever you plan, the odds of rain are much the same.

Daylight runs from 10 hours in winter to 14.3 in summer, enough to notice on a sightseeing itinerary.

The three strongest months are November, January, December. The one to think twice about is September. Each month below has its own page with rainfall reliability, extremes, daylight and crowd levels.
