Weather

Iran's climate is articulated and distinguished by geographical areas and altitudes.

The arid regions of the south are the warmest

and with mild winters. Temperatures from April begin to exceed 30°C and from June to September rise even higher, well above 40°C, making the air particularly sultry. Between October and November the excessive heat begins to subside and the winter between January and February is mild, with daytime temperatures around 19 ° C. Rainfall in the south is scarce and falls from November to March with only 3-5 cm of rain per month. During the rest of the year, rainfall events are very rare, generally absent between June and September.
