It's extremely hot. In Brazil it is really hot during summer. The temperature is able of reaching 40° Celsius or 80° Fareiheint. The summer starts on December 22nd, and finishes on February 21st, during this long period high temperatures take place over the country. Although the country is hot, Rio Grande do Sul (a state in Brazil) is not too hot though, I can say it is a little cold there and that's because it is inside a cold region. As you can see above, the biggest part of the country is emerged in a tropical zone, however, Rio Grande do sul is in a subtropical one. Therefore, this situation made Rio Grande do Sul become the only state in wich it snows in Brazil during winter. The seasons here are a little different from the rest of the world: The Summer starts on December 22nd and finishes on February 21st, when it lets the fall start on the other day (February 22nd). The fall finishes on June 20th, and lets the winter get started. During winter, the temperatures in Rio Grande do Sul can be around -6° Celsius (21° Fareiheint) and -10° Celsius (14° Fareiheint), however when it's compared with some country's temperatures is not that too cold. The Winter finishes on September 21st and lets the spring start on the other day. In Brazil it is common for it to rain heavier during summer starting, but after a few days the hot comes heavier than what you can see in any time of year. People tend to complain at it but everyone is already used to it at all.
