Weather in the Little Rann of Kutch Around Diwali

genesis · Oct 12th, 2009, 15:09

Checking in to see if there are any on the ground reports on how hot it will be...
Ahmedabad seems to be around 33-35 c.

Will the Rann be cooler or hotter?

Also will the salt pans have dried out or will it be muddy?

Any inputs appreciated.

mostly okay - but stop to ask locals about the route.

otherwise best to hire one as a guide for 100-150 bucks.

THIS should be a helpful indicator

Bhuj and Patdi are a bit separate, but the temperatures should be similar. Of course, it should get worse in the rann in daytime.

But the short answer is: bloody hot.

Gujarat - Rajasthan Road Trip has many more tips.
