Argentinawhen to go
Argentina's national averages run from 14 °C in June to 28 °C in January, with rainfall between 32 mm in July and 97 mm in January and 5.2–9.8 hours of sun a day. Against the default preferences (under 2.7 mm of rain a day, at least 6 hours of sun), the strongest months are November, December and January. Its 24 regions span 9–30 °C in annual mean temperature, so the national figure hides a good deal. Argentina is large enough that the map paints it as a mosaic of its regions rather than one national colour; the figures above are the mean of those regions.
