Port of Vallartaone of the main tourist destinations in the state of Jalisco, has a semi-warm subhumid climate due to its close to the Sierra Madre Occidental mountain range and the Pacific Ocean.

Mexico is a privileged country, due to its geographical location (its outlet on the Caribbean Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the division made by the Tropic of Cancer) makes it a megadiverse region, hosting at least 12% of the world’s species, 12,000 of which are endemic.

Although the Tropic of Cancer divides the country into two climatic zones – one temperate and the other tropical – the truth is that the altitude, latitude and distribution of land and water mean that within the national territory up to seven types of weather are identified: hot subhumid, dry, semi-dry, dry desert, hot humid, temperate subhumid, temperate humid and cold.

In this context, it is not surprising that in the upper parts of Chihuahua the thermometer reaches -30 degrees in temperature, while in the Mexicali desert, equal to the north of the country, it rises to register 50 degrees Celsius.

According to the National Weather Service, the country’s average annual temperature is 19 degrees, however, there are cities like Mexicali, Culiacán, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo, Torreón, Saltillo and Monterrey where temperatures are excessively high.

As proof is San Luis Rio Coloradoa city located in Sonora and located on the border of the Great Altar Desert of Baja California and the state of Arizona and which is well known for holding the record for the highest temperature recorded in the country, after on July 6, 1966 the thermometer rose to mark 58.5 degrees Celsius.

On the other hand, the lowest temperature recorded in history It was that of December 27, 1997, when the thermometer dropped to -25 degrees in the Chihuahuan municipality of Madero.

However, this variety of climates has been affected in recent years by the global warming and experts predict a bleak future for the country with a drastic reduction in annual rainfall and a drastic rise in temperatures.

Los estragos ya han comenzado a reflejarse con afectaciones a los agricultores y ganaderos debido a las sequías o las severas inundaciones, mientras que en las épocas de calor se ha visto una alza en el número de contingencias ambientales en las principal urbes, comme es el caso of Mexico City.
