Does anyone know how the climate is in Quito, Ecuador?


Does anyone know how the climate is in Quito, Ecuador?

Quito's climate is often described as eternal spring, meaning balmy days between 8-21掳 C, warm direct sunlight cooled by light steady breezes, painfully picturesque clouds that usually gather for a short afternoon shower, all capped by a cool--but not cold--darkness. The Quite帽o saying, that the city experiences all four seasons in a single day, isn't far off the mark.

Dry season in the capital lasts June-Sept., with July and August receiving the least precipitation. A shortened dry season runs Dec.-Jan. More rain falls Feb.-March and Oct.-Nov., with at least half of April seeing a torrential downpour taking up most of the afternoon.

Well its usually really cold during the winter, but it can also get hot during summer thinking that you are right next to the ecuator line.

also quito is really high of sea level so if you run for a little you'll feel short on breath.
