Hi Move,
Here are some information about the weather in Malaysia (KL):
Malaysia is generally warm throughout the year with temperatures ranging from 21° to 32° Celsius (about 70° to 90° Fahrenheit) in the lowlands. This can however be as low as 16° Celsius (about 60° Fahrenheit) in the highlands. Annual rainfall is heavy at 2,500mm (100 inches).
On a rainy day, thunder and lightning often accompany the heavy downpour which normally lasts for about an hour or two. The high humidity level at 80% throughout the year favours light and sweat-absorbent material like cotton for daily dressing.
Generally, Malaysia has two distinct seasons. The dry season occurs during the south-west monsoon from May and September. The northeast monsoon brings the rainy season to the country during mid-November till March.
If heat is your enemy, the only alternative is to ensure the home/office you choose for yourself has excellent ventilation with lots of windows for better air circulation, and is fitted with air-conditioning.
Most accommodation/offices will have air conditioning although many offices, houses and apartments will only have it in the rooms.
You can learn more about living in Malaysia via this website (www.expatkl.com) or you can email me personally at ahmadsoffian@gmail.com.
Till then.
Soffian
