🇮🇳 Ahmedabad vs 🇳🇬 Lagos

Ahmedabad sits on the semi-arid plains of Gujarat, bisected by the Sabarmati River, and experiences extreme summer heat regularly exceeding 45°C alongside a brief but intense monsoon season. The city's rapid expansion from its historic walled core into sprawling suburban development has created dramatic urban heat island effects, with the old city's dense fabric and the western suburbs' open layouts producing sharply different thermal environments. The Sabarmati riverfront and scattered lakes provide localized cooling corridors, while industrial zones in the east and south amplify heat accumulation.

Tropical monsoon — hot and humid year-round with distinct wet and dry seasons

Lagos is hot and humid year-round. The wet season (April–October) brings heavy rains and periodic flooding; the dry season (November–March) is the best time to visit. The harmattan wind (December–February) brings dry, hazy air from the Sahara.
