Weather or Not
Double ha!
I've landed in the midst of what must be the ideal month for weather in Hyderabad, a city that has a pretty favorable reputation as far as Indian cities go.
Every day, highs of 85 degrees and sunny skies. There's a bit of haze/smog that takes a while to burn off every day, even if the smell of smoke usually lingers all day, but it only makes for more aglow sunrises. The low temperature each night? Mid-50s. In short, it's glorious.
Alas, it's a bit chilly for my Indian friends. The Times of India went so far as to call it "bone chilling." So much so...I kid you not...that a good percentage of them wear earmuffs every morning and night. Camouflage, of course.
But to put it into perspective, if possible, keep in mind that Hyderabad as NEVER IN RECORDED HUMAN HISTORY seen freezing temperatures. Touche.
