In this paper, we present 5th generation (5G) millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless communication propagation losses dataset for four Indian major urban cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai based on corresponding weather conditions. Weather effect on mmWave is calculated in terms of mmWave path losses by considering various atmospheric weather conditions. Propagation of mmWave is affected by weather impairments (WIs) and due to that mmWave attenuation takes place and Indian metro cities have variety in weather variations. 5G mmWave propagation attenuation is calculated due to WIs like water vapour, oxygen, rain and fog for frequencies 28 GHz, 37 GHz and 39 GHz. Individual WI effects during the season are calculated and shown suing graphs and tables. Keywords: 5th generation (5G), Millimeter wave (mmWave), Weather impairments (WIs)
