Rain falls mainly during the northeast monsoon in the months of November, December and January.
Then, from the beginning of February until mid October there is very little rain – if any rainfall at all.
Occasional freak weather does occur and heavy showers might be experienced when it is most unexpected …. .
Showers can happen in the ‘intermediate monsoonal period’ in mid April but not every year.
During the November – end of January northeast monsoon water is abundant with plenty of temporary water puddles everywhere.
Water reservoirs scattered around Yala Block 1 will keep a stock of water for a long time into the dry part of the year.
