About latitude comparisons

When comparing cities at the same latitude, such as Las Heras and its global counterparts, it is important to remember that while they share identical daylight hours and similar solar angles throughout the year, their climates may differ drastically. Factors including elevation, proximity to oceans, and dominant wind patterns shape the local environment just as much as solar positioning.

The results shown here are cities located within ±0.5 degrees of Las Heras's parallel (-46.54°), which covers roughly 55 kilometers (34 miles) north or south of its exact coordinate.

Frequently asked questions

Do these cities share the same climate?

Not necessarily. Latitude is only one influence on climate; altitude, coastlines, ocean currents and local terrain also matter.
