Spring, summer, fall or winter, nowadays it doesn’t matter what season of the year it is given the recent climate change that turns an afternoon of scorching sun into a storm in the blink of an eye.

What is the weather in Tijuana?
Tijuanaone of the main cities of Baja California, has a semi-arid type climate which is characterized by having dry and temperate to hot summers, as well as mild and humid winters. The average annual temperature is 17.5 degrees.
Due to its access to the Pacific Ocean and its proximity to California, its coasts are cold during the summer and warm in the winter; likewise, the rains are not as abundant and occur due to cold fronts or storms generated between November and April.
From autumn to spring it is common for the phenomenon known as “Santa Ana Winds”which are characterized by strong, dry and hot winds that go from the mountains to the sea and that can cause heat waves above 30 degrees.
Secondly, record low temperature has been -9.4 and the maximum of 48.2 degrees, likewise, it has snowed up to five times (in the years 1967, 2007, 2008, 2014, 2021) although in reality the low temperatures are strange in this area.
What kind of climate is in Mexico
Mexico is a favored country, because its geographical position (its outlet to the Caribbean Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the division made by the Tropic of Cancer) makes it a megadiverse region, being home to at least 12% of the world’s species, 12 thousand 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 the distribution of land and water mean that in the national territory up to seven types of weather are identified: warm sub-humid, dry, semi-dry, dry desert, warm humid, temperate sub-humid, temperate humid and cold.
In this panorama, it is not surprising that in the upper parts of Chihuahua the thermometer reaches -30 degrees of temperature, while in the Mexicali desert, equal to the north of the country, it rises to register 50 degrees Celsius.
According to the National Meteorological Service, the average annual temperature of the country is 19 degrees, however, there are cities like Mexicali, Culiacán, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo, Torreón, Saltillo and Monterrey where temperatures are extremely high.
As proof of this 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 the 6 July 1966 the thermometer rose to mark 58.5 degrees Celsius.
In contrast, 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 have been affected in recent years by the global warming and experts foresee a grim future for the country with a considerable reduction in annual rainwater and a considerable increase in temperatures.
The ravages have already begun to affect farmers and ranchers due to droughts or severe floods, while in hot seasons there has been an increase in the number of environmental contingencies in the main metropolises, as is the case from the Mexican capital.
