Weather in Pune in February

A good month. February is a solid month to be in Pune. Highs average 32.9 °C, lows 15.5 °C, and rain falls on 0 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

February ranks 4 of 12 in Pune: past the worst of the year but short of December, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain is not a factor worth planning around this month. Pack for 32.9 °C days and 15.5 °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: 6 days clear 35 °C, so a serious heatwave is normal rather than notable; the day swings 17.4 °C from low to high, which means one bag has to cover both. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest February day reached 38.7 °C and the coldest night fell to 7.1 °C.

February is dependably dry, and that reliability is the point: across the twenty years measured, the wettest February on record still only managed 15 mm, and the driest managed 0 mm. There is no meaningful variability to plan around, which makes this one of the few months anywhere that you can build a fixed outdoor itinerary against without a fallback. The wettest single day in twenty years of Februarys brought 15 mm. Rain simply is not the variable that decides this trip — heat, crowds and cost are.

Wind is light at 6.9 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 45%.

How February sits in the year

The month is on the way up: 3.6 °C warmer than January, and March adds another 3.7 °C. Late in the month feels noticeably different from the start of it, which is worth knowing if the trip is short.

Daylight in February

February sits at the dark end of Pune's year — 11.5 hours of daylight against 13.2 at midsummer, gaining 0.5 hours across the month. Sightseeing days are genuinely shorter, and an itinerary built for summer will not fit.

An inland climate

With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 25.8 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage. Within February itself the daily swing is 17.4 °C, so mornings and afternoons need different clothes.

How busy it gets

Shoulder. The value months — prices ease off and you get the place closer to itself.

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

February in Pune versus nearby

If Pune is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Mumbai is the weaker option in February — 2.6 °C warmer, 1 day more rain. Virār is a better bet in February — 6.5 °C cooler, 1 day more rain.

So: February is a compromise. December is 21 points better and is what Pune is actually like at its best — worth moving the trip for if that is possible, and worth adjusting expectations for if it is not.
