Owing to its location near the equator, Sawla features a Tropical savanna climate (Köppen "Aw"). However, it is atypical for its classification, owing to its latitude and altitude. Despite the "Aw" classification, which indicates a dry winter and a wet summer, Sawla has two dry seasons, one occurring in winter, and another, less pronounced dry season in the summer. Similarly, there are two rainy seasons, the strongest being in the spring and a weaker one in autumn. This occurs due to the Intertropical Convergence Zone passing over the equatorial regions in the spring and fall, which is typical of the region. Although still meeting Köppen's tropical threshold, temperatures are significantly cooler due to Sawla's altitude, thus giving the location characteristics closer to a highland climate.
