Days are often warm; nights cool down at altitude and in forest camps — layer clothing rather than relying on a single forecast.
Long rains typically peak March–May; shorter rains appear October–November, though patterns shift year to year.
Weather in Jinja follows broader East African patterns — two rainy seasons and two drier windows — but local altitude and forest cover can shift temperatures more than maps suggest.
