Climate

Malaysia's weather is generally hot and sunny all year round., with temperatures wavering between 32°C during the day and 24°C at night. Humidity is high at 80 percent. The temperature in the highlands is slightly lower.

The onset of the monsoon season from May to September brings with it rain to the west coast of Penisular Malaysia. The east coast of the penisular and Sabah and Sarawak experience their monsoon season between November and February.

The inter-monsoon periods experience the heaviest rainfalls. Otherwise, light showers come and go, helping to relieve the heat from the sun.
