Kaduna's climate is characterized by a hot and dry season from February to May, with temperatures often reaching above 40°C in April. The wet season begins in June, bringing slightly cooler temperatures ranging from 21-36°C, but also marked by frequent rainfall. July and August are relatively cool months, with temperatures around 24-25°C, likely due to the influence of the Harmattan wind. As the dry season returns in September, temperatures rise again, although not as high as during the peak hot season. The cooler winter-like period from November to December brings temperatures back down to a more moderate range, but still relatively warm compared to temperate climates.
