Climate chart - Valdivia
Valdivia's climate is mild oceanic. Winters (June to August) are mild and rainy, while summers (December to February) are pleasantly warm during the day and cool at night, and quite sunny. Although summer is the driest season, it can sometimes rain even in this season.
The city is located in south-central Chile, in Chilean Patagonia, at 39 degrees south latitude and 13 km (8 mi) away from the Pacific coast, where the towns of Corral and Niebla are located. We are in a very green area crossed by several rivers, which often widen into swamps and marshes. To the north of the city, the Calle-Calle and Cruces rivers meet in the city and give life to the Valdivia River, which then flows into the sea, while the Angachilla River flows in the south.
To the east of the city, towards the Andes, there are several lakes and volcanoes.
Fog can form all year round.
In late autumn and winter, from May to August, the rains are frequent and abundant. When the sky is clear, the temperature can sometimes drop below freezing at night.
Snow in Valdivia is very rare, however, the city can sometimes be blanketed in snow, as happened in August 1995 and August 2020.
In summer, temperatures are pleasant during the day, but nights are cool, and sometimes even cold. The cold records in this season are around freezing.
When the winds blow from the interior, there can be very hot days, although more rarely than in cities further north, such as Temuco. Furthermore, even in these cases, at night the temperature drops a lot.
