Climate Conditions
Amazon Weather: The rainy season begins in October and it goes until March or May.
It is hot all year round.
Pantanal Weather: The rainy season lasts from December until March.
The middle seasons are April to June and October to November. Rain is
intense in the rainy season, the temperature is high, and Pantanal gets
flooded.
Northeast Coast Weather: Salvador, Fortaleza, Recife, and all towns
close to these have hot temperatures all year round. It is rarely below
25ºC (77ºF) but there are very few days hotter than 33ºC (91ºF). Winter
temperatures are just 3 to 4ºC degrees below the summer temperatures.
Those are all year-round beach regions. There is not too much rain in the
region.
Rio de Janeiro Weather: The high season in Rio is the summer, from
December until March. There might be some days with lower temperature
in the winter, but the winter temperature is around 20ºC (68ºF) and very
rarely goes below 15ºC (59ºF).
São Paulo Weather: São Paulo isn’t a completely southern Brazilian city. It
is too near to Rio de Janeiro not to share its climate patterns. Some of the
beaches in São Paulo are very similar to Rio’s. São Paulo has many days
with nice temperatures and good weather, but the summer can be very hot
and the winter can have very cold days.
South of Brazil Weather: The south of Brazil has a more “conventional”
all-season climate, with a cold winter (winter temperatures and evenings
can be low and uncomfortable: 5 to 8°C/41º to 47ºF) and a hot summer.
