It is pleasantly cool and the sky mostly cloudless. During the cool season it is advisable to bring a light jacket or a warm sweater. The best bet during the rainy season is an umbrella. A plastic poncho is too warm for most of the year. You'll sweat enough to get as wet as if you'd not wear one.
Sandals are convenient.
All foot wear must be taken off when entering pagodas or monasteries. Shorts and briefs are not allowed. Make sure you take warm clothes with you if you visit the mountainous regions, like the Shan State. It can become quite cold there in the night.
