Forecast

Chinchero has low air pressure because it's a high-altitude area, over 12,000 feet above sea level. Its geography, with mountains and hills, also affects air pressure. During the day, the sun heats the ground, making air pressure decrease. At night, it cools down, and air pressure increases slightly. In summer, air pressure is lower with more rain, and in winter, it's higher with clearer skies. Chinchero has a subtropical highland climate, which means it has varying air pressure throughout the year. The area experiences a dry season with higher pressure and a wet season with lower pressure. The Andes Mountains surrounding Chinchero contribute to its unique air pressure patterns. Temperatures drop at high elevations, making air pressure decrease. The region's climate and geography together create distinct seasonal weather patterns.
