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.
