What is the weather like in Mazatlán?
Mazatlán, located in Sinaloa, is a municipality that enjoys a type of semi-humid dry-rainy tropical climate, which is also marked by a dry season.
The average annual temperature for this region is 26 degrees, although it is usual for humidity to cause a feeling of heat in the summer. The weather is warm from December to February, and there is rainfall between the months of July and October, although in that period the thermometers may reach 35 degrees.
From time to time, between the months of June and November, Mazatlán could be affected by the season of storms and hurricanes, although these affect more to the west on the California side of the peninsula. Only three times has the city been hit by these phenomena: in 1943, in 1957, and in 1975.
Where is the best weather in Mexico
Mexico is a favored country, because its geographical location (its exit to the Caribbean Sea, the Pacific Ocean, and the division made by the Tropic of Cancer) makes it a megadiverse area, being home to at least 12% of the world’s species, 12 thousand of them endemic.
Although the Tropic of Cancer divides the country into two climatic zones – one temperate and the other tropical – the truth is that the altitude, latitude and the distribution of land and water mean that up to seven types of climate are identified in the national territory: warm sub-humid, dry, semi-dry, desert, warm humid, temperate sub-humid, temperate humid and cold.
In this scenario, it is not strange that in the upper parts of Chihuahua, the thermometer reaches -30 degrees Celsius, while in the Mexicali desert, the same as the north of the country, it rises to 50 degrees Celsius.
According to the National Meteorological Service, the average annual temperature of the country is 19 degrees; however, there are cities such as Mexicali, Culiacán, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo, Torreón, Saltillo, and Monterrey where temperatures are extremely high.
As proof of this is San Luis Río Colorado, a city located in Sonora and located on the limits of the Great Altar Desert of Baja California and the state of Arizona, and which is well known for holding the record for the highest temperature recorded in the country, after the thermometer rose to 58.5 degrees Celsius on July 6, 1966.
In contrast, the lowest temperature recorded in history was that of December 27, 1997, when the thermometer dropped to -25 degrees in the Chihuahuan municipality of Madero.
However, this variety of climates has been affected in recent years by global warming , and experts foresee a bleak future for the country with a considerable reduction in annual rainfall and a considerable increase in temperatures.
The ravages have already begun to be seen with effects on farmers and ranchers due to droughts or heavy floods, while in hot seasons, there has been an increase in the number of environmental contingencies in the main cities, as is the case in the Mexican capital.
