Rosario's Climate
Rosario stands on the banks of the Paraná River in Santa Fe province, central Argentina, amid the fertile Pampas plains. Because it lies in the Southern Hemisphere, its seasons are reversed from the north; the climate is humid subtropical, with hot summers and mild winters. Summer (December–February) is hot and humid, with daytime highs usually 30–35°C, frequent showers and thunderstorms and the occasional intense heatwave, while winter (June–August) is mild, with 12–18°C days, night lows of 4–8°C and occasional light frost. Spring and autumn are temperate, pleasant and rarely extreme, and rain falls mostly in the warmer half of the year.
