Perlis Weather
Perlis, the smallest state in Malaysia, experiences a tropical monsoon climate with warm temperatures ranging from 23°C to 34°C (73°F to 93°F) throughout the year. The state has two distinct monsoon seasons: the Northeast Monsoon (November to March), which brings heavy rains, and the Southwest Monsoon (May to September), which is typically drier and hotter.
