About Kigali weather

Kigali is in Nyarugenge District, Rwanda at -1.95°, 30.06°. Right now it’s 19° and partly cloudy; today’s high is 20° with a 85% chance of rain.

Rwanda, known as the "Land of a Thousand Hills," has a temperate tropical highland climate moderated by its average elevation of 1,500 meters. Kigali enjoys pleasant temperatures ranging from 15-27°C throughout the year, making it one of the most comfortable capitals in equatorial Africa. Despite its position just two degrees south of the equator, Rwanda's high altitude prevents the oppressive heat found in lower-lying tropical nations.
