Brasilia's Climate

Brasilia sits on Brazil's central plateau above 1,000m and has a tropical savanna climate split into two sharply contrasting seasons. The wet season (October to April) is warm and humid with frequent afternoon thunderstorms, while the dry season (May to September) sees almost no rain and humidity plunging to very low levels, leaving the air parched and at times raising the risk of brush fires. Daytime temperatures stay fairly steady year-round at around 25-29°C, cooling pleasantly at night thanks to the altitude. This page provides an hourly and 14-day forecast plus detailed metrics for humidity, wind, UV index and air quality (AQI).
