उत्तर

- Due to its geographical location, the climate in most parts of Brazil is warm and humid, making snowfall a rare occurrence.
- However, because of their higher altitudes and proximity to the Andes and Antarctic cold winds, southern locations like sections of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul might occasionally experience snowfall.
- Yet, much of Brazil experiences temperatures that are too high to support regular snowfall.
