I've never seen anything quite like this before. Dharamshala is a highland city in the Himalayas of northern India. However, it's not just a cooler version of the lowland north Indian plain climates like Delhi though. The difference is that Dharamshala is very wet in the monsoon season. July and August each average nearly 1 meter of rain, and the annual average is over 3 meters.
India is certainly very diverse in terms of climate considering its latitude and elevation differences. It has continental climates in the mountains of Jammu and Kashmir with oceanic-like climates in other highland areas (e.g. Shimla) as well as the wide range of subtropical and tropical climates. Some borderline subarctic climates even exist in the highest towns. It is dominated by warm to hot climates, but it is also very diverse.
I give Dharamshala a B. Overall temps could be a little bit cooler but they're still very nice. The problem for me is excessive rain in the monsoon season. Prolonged heavy rain can get annoying not to mention flooding concerns. Still a great climate though.

As usual, please rate fairly and do not consider non-climatic factors such as pollution.
