 The summers are hot and mainly dry (November to March) with temperatures reaching up to 32 degrees Celsius on the hottest days.The winters (late May to mid September) tend to be rather humid and rainy, with typical maximum daily temperatures of 15 degrees Celsius, and minimum just above freezing.The rainfall is more abundant in the eastern as well as the southern part of the province (Parral), and the effects of this are seen in the good conditions for rice cultivation in the latter area.
