उत्तर
- Brazil is a vast country located mostly within the tropical and subtropical regions of the Southern Hemisphere.
- Due to its geographical location, the climate in most parts of Brazil is warm and humid, making snowfall a rare occurrence.
- However, because of their higher altitudes and proximity to the Andes and Antarctic cold winds, southern locations like sections of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul might occasionally experience snowfall.
- Yet, much of Brazil experiences temperatures that are too high to support regular snowfall.
- The Tropic of Capricorn passes through Brazil, so a large part of the country lies in the tropical zone, where temperatures remain high throughout the year.
- Brazil has vast lowland areas like the Amazon Basin, where warm conditions and high humidity prevent the formation of snow.
