ML - Mali

To choose when to visit the country it should be remembered that Mali has a subtropical and arid climate. During the dry season, hot waves often arise from the Sahara causing recurring droughts. In Bamako (340 m a.s.l.), for example, the average seasonal temperatures vary from 16 ° C to 39 ° C. January is the relatively coldest month, with temperatures ranging from 16 ° C to 33 ° C; April is the hottest, with average temperatures ranging from 34 ° C to 39 ° C. Flooding of the Niger River occurs regularly during the rainy season (generally between June / July to November / December).
