Weather
The climate of Paraguay is generally subtropical, except in some parts of the Chaco region, with temperatures similar to those of the Brazilian Pantanal, where it is hot and humid. The country is cut by the Tropic of Capricorn in the center, near Concepción. The central and flat position of Paraguay, practically without natural barriers, favors the rapid effects of the warm winds originating in Ecuador, and the cold winds that come from Argentina, causing severe thermal variations.

In summer, temperatures range between 26 ° C and 33 ° C, and in the winter between 15 ° C and 26 ° C. The average temperature is 23 ° C, while the absolute maximum is 41 ° C and the minimum is 1 ° C. The difference between the average summer temperature and the winter temperature is 6 ° C. One of the characteristics of the Paraguayan climate is the high temperature experienced in summer, especially in the region of the fields and the Chaco, and the intense cold that occurs in the winter period.

The rains are very frequent and almost always abundant in Paraguayan territory. The size of the country has an influence on the amount of rainfall, accentuating the dry season especially on the border with Bolivia and Argentina. The rainfall index can be considered very high in the Paraná Plateau, with 2,000 mm per year. In the capital, Asuncion falls to 1,300 mm and in the Chaco to 800 mm. The months of rainfall concentration are December, January and February, falling during the winter months.
