Coldest Buenos Aires Winter in Years

7/14/2007 9:48 AM

It certainly has been a cold few months across portions of southern South America. The frequent passage of cold fronts with chilly air straight from Antarctica has led to a very chilly late fall and early winter in the Argentine capital. Beginning on May 6; there has been only one day, June 5, when daily temperatures have averaged above normal. That means that of the 70 days that have passed since May 6; 69 of the 70 have been at or below normal on average.

Buenos Aires typically has a very mild climate; with average daily high temperatures in the upper 50s in July and overnight lows in the lower 40s; temperatures similar to some beaches along the South Carolina and Georgia coats during January. So far this month the mercury as fallen below freezing 7 of the first 13 days with high temperatures remaining in the 40s for four straight days from July 7 through July 10. For the month so far, temperatures have averaged 8.5 degrees below normal with the period from May 6 through July 13 averaging 7 degrees below normal.

The most unusual event occurred during July 9, when a very rare snowfall occurred in the city; 1.6 inches of snow was recorded, making it the first measurable snow since 1918. However, it looks like some relief is on the way as high pressure will bring a return to near-normal temperatures across much of the country for this weekend and much of next week.
