What is the average annual rainfall in Brazil?
Most of Brazil receives from 1000 to 1500 mm (39 to 59 in.)of rain per year. However, NE Brazil is semi-arid, hot and dry, with severe droughts except directly along the Atlantic coast. The Amazon basin (despite a 3-to-5-month dry season) receives as much as 2000 or even 3000 mm (79 to 118 in.) annually.
