The climate can generally be described as tropical as Cambodia is affected by monsoon. However it is hot and humid with an overage temperature around 27.C (80.F). There are two distinct seasons; the rainy season and the dry season. However, the dry season is divided into two sub-seasons, cool and hot. The rainy season from June till October 27-35.C (80-95.f). The dry season (cool) from November till February 17-27.C (80-95.F). The dry season (Hot) from March till May 29-38.C (84-100.F)
The hottest days of the hot season rarely climb above 35C-37C, though the sun can feel pretty intense. The cool season may push the mercury as low as the mid 20s during the day and 20C at night. The monsoons between June and October are fairly regular: clear, dry mornings with 1-3 hour rains in the afternoon. The regularity of the wet season rains make them easy to plan around. The rains tends to dampen spirits in the beach town of Sihanoukville where things slow down considerably during the wet season, but the rains can actually enhance your visit to the temples of Angkor and the Cambodian countryside. They can make touring a bit more difficult but bring out unique beauty and color in the temples as their surrounding reflecting pools fill and the jungle and rice paddies become green.
