Local climate notes
Battambang lies in the rain shadow of the Cardamom range, making it one of the driest provinces in Cambodia — which is also why it is the country's main rice-growing region and unusually dependent on the timing of the rains. The dry season runs December to April, with afternoon humidity sometimes dropping below 50%, a level rarely seen elsewhere in Cambodia.

Mekong basin rainfall: 6 mm over the past 72 hours, 8 mm forecast for the next 72.
This is a seasonal estimate combined with basin rainfall, not a measured level. Official water level and discharge come from the Mekong River Commission (MRC). The timing of the reversal varies year to year and has shifted noticeably over the past two decades.
