Geography
Hills of Lumding put the town a notable altitude above the sea level, but summer temperatures can reach up to 40 °C and the winters can be as chilling as 4-5 °C with fog and mist intervening in the early hours of the day. Monsoon is a notable season here, with rainfall around 60–125mm at an average. But its hills and altitude prevents any flooding in the region during heavy monsoon. Climate here is favourable for vegetation and agriculture of tropical fruits and vegetables. Fruits like coconuts, pineapple, jack-fruit, papaya, banana are grown here. Cucumber, potatoes, cabbages and other green vegetables are common agricultural vegetables here.
