🇰🇪 Nairobi vs 🇮🇳 Pune

Subtropical highland — mild year-round due to altitude, two rainy seasons

Nairobi sits at 5,889 feet (1,795m) elevation, keeping temperatures moderate year-round. There are two rainy seasons: the long rains (March–May) and short rains (October–December). July–August is the driest and most comfortable period.

Pune sits on the Deccan Plateau at an elevation of roughly 560 meters, nestled between the Sahyadri (Western Ghats) mountain range to its west and rolling plateau terrain to the east. The city's climate is shaped by the monsoon shadow effect — western neighborhoods closer to the Ghats receive significantly heavier rainfall than the drier eastern suburbs. Winters are cool and dry with morning fog in river valleys, while pre-monsoon summers are hot but moderated compared to lowland cities thanks to Pune's elevation.
