Argentina weather by month

In Buenos Aires, the average share of the sky covered by clouds shows moderate seasonal variation over the course of the year.

The clearer part of the year begins around November 2 and lasts for 5.8 months, ending around April 27. The clearest month is January, when the sky is clear, mostly clear, or partly cloudy 68% of the time on average.

The cloudier part of the year begins around April 28 and lasts for 6.2 months, ending around November 1. The cloudiest month is June, when it is overcast or mostly cloudy 53% of the time.

This is the average sustained wind speed at the standard 10 metres above open ground — the steady flow a weather station reports, not the sharper gusts that come and go, which can run half again as fast. It's the number that says whether a place is generally breezy or calm.

Wind in Buenos Aires is steady company: average speeds sit near 16 km/h — light breeze — in every month of the year, with no meaningful windy or calm season.

Solar energy is how much sunlight actually reaches the ground each day, measured in kilowatt-hours per square metre (kWh/m²) — the combined effect of how long the sun is up, how high it climbs, and how much cloud gets in the way. It's the raw fuel a solar panel has to work with: for scale, 1 kWh/m² a day is dim and wintry, while 7+ is desert-bright.

Buenos Aires receives about 4.8 kWh/m² a day of solar energy on average — bright — with a clear seasonal swing between 2.2 and 7.4 kWh/m².

The brighter stretch of the year lasts 5.9 months, from around Sep 23 to Mar 21. The brightest month is December, averaging about 7.4 kWh/m² (intense).

The dimmest month is June, down near 2.2 kWh/m² — roughly 70% less than the December peak.
