The climate of Buenos Aires (Argentina)
Buenos Aires is located in the south eastern part of Argentina at the mouth of the Rio del Plata. Buenos Aires is both the largest city in Argentina and its capital. Besides Madrid it is the largest city in the world with Spanish as first language. The city was built in Art Deco, Art Nouveau and Gothic styles. This gives Buenos Aires an interesting skyline that reminds you of several European cities. Buenos Aires has a moderate climate with distinct seasons. Quite a lot of rain falls all year round with a peak during the summer months. Summers are warm. Smog and air pollution in and around the city are responsible for soaring temperatures. Winters are mild because of Buenos Aires’ location on the banks of a river. The climate is also influenced by several types of winds that blow here. The Pampero blows from a south westerly direction and usually supplies cold air. The Pampero may occur all year round, but especially during warm summer days it may cause temperatures to drop. The Sudestada blows from a south easterly direction and doesn’t occur that often. It usually occurs during spring and autumn. The Sudestada causes temperatures to drop and often brings long lasting showers. The rainfall may vary from a drizzle to heavy rainfall. Snow and glazed frost are uncommon.

Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
