The short answer
When to go to Jalna
November to February is the best window, with dry and mild weather suited to the fort, mosque and garden. March is workable if you start early; April and May are very hot. The monsoon from June to September brings humid, wet days that make uneven sites such as the fort slippery. October is pleasant and includes the Navratri fair at Ambad, which is rewarding but crowded for older travellers.
