Field notes
900m elevation makes Curitiba meaningfully cooler than Rio or São Paulo — winter (June–August) gets genuinely cold (13–14°C average, occasional frosts). Summer is mild-warm (peak 20°C average). Rain is distributed across the year with no real dry season. Frost risk in July–August is unusual for Brazil.
