where the models agree, and where they split

Heading to Penang? Penang, Malaysia, sits at 5.4°N in a tropical climate zone. Before you lock in outdoor plans, compare how the three global models - European (ECMWF), American (GFS) and German (ICON) - forecast Penang right now. Where they agree you can trust it; the days they split are exactly when a single weather app is least reliable. For a beach trip the rain and wind columns below matter most - that is what makes or breaks a day by the sea.

Best time to visit Penang

The most comfortable time to visit Penang is usually January, February, March and April, when daytime highs sit in the pleasant 24-33°C range and the heaviest October rain is behind you.
