Winter in Varanasi extends from November to March when the days are bearable but the nights are quite cold and chilly. Winter mornings are mostly foggy and the temperature during winter ranges between 5°c and 15°c. Freezing gales from Himalayan Regions render the winter in Varanasi even more algid.
