Paraguay experiences a subtropical climate in the Paraneña region and a tropical climate in the Chaco. The Paraneña region has a humid climate, with abundant precipitation throughout the year and only moderate seasonal changes in temperature. During the [[Southern Hemisphere]]'s summer, which corresponds to the northern winter, the dominant influence on the climate is the warm [[sirocco]] winds blowing out of the northeast. During the winter, the dominant wind is the cold [[pampero (wind)|pampero]] from the [[South Atlantic]], which blows across Argentina and is deflected northeastward by the Andes in the southern part of that country. Because of the lack of topographic barriers within Paraguay, these opposite prevailing winds bring about abrupt and irregular changes in the usually moderate weather. Winds are generally brisk. Velocities of 160&nbsp;km/h (100&nbsp;mph) have been reported in southern locations, and the town of Encarnación was once leveled by a [[tornado]].

The Paraneña region has only two distinct seasons: summer from October to March and winter from May to August. April and September are transitional months in which temperatures are below the midsummer averages and minimums may dip below freezing. Climatically, autumn and spring do not really exist. During the mild winters, July is the coldest month, with a mean temperature of about {{convert|18|°C|}} in Asunción and {{convert|17|°C|}} on the Paraná Plateau. There is no significant north–south variation. The number of days with temperatures falling below freezing ranges from as few as three to as many as sixteen yearly, and with even wider variations deep in the interior. Some winters are very mild, with winds blowing constantly from the north, and little frost. During a cold winter, however, tongues of [[Antarctic]] air bring subfreezing temperatures to all areas. No part of the Paraneña region is entirely free from the possibility of frost and consequent damage to crops, and snow flurries have been reported in various locations.

Moist tropical air keeps the weather warm in the Paraneña region from October through March. In Asunción the seasonal average is about {{convert|24|°C|}}, with January—the warmest month—averaging {{convert|29|°C|}}. Villarrica has a seasonal mean temperature of {{convert|21|°C|}} and a January mean of {{convert|27|°C|}}. During the summer, daytime temperatures reaching {{convert|38|°C|}} are fairly common. Frequent waves of cool air from the south, however, cause weather that alternates between clear, humid conditions and storms. Skies will be almost cloudless for a week to ten days as temperature and humidity rise continually. As the soggy heat nears intolerable limits, thunderstorms preceding a cold front will blow in from the south, and temperatures will drop as much as {{convert|15|C-change|round=5}} in a few minutes.

[[Rainfall]] in the Paraneña region is fairly evenly distributed. Although local meteorological conditions play a contributing role, rain usually falls when tropical air masses are dominant. The least rain falls in August, when averages in various parts of the region range from {{convert|200|to|100|mm|in|0|sp=us}}. The two periods of maximum precipitation are March through May and October to November.

For the region as a whole, the difference between the driest and the wettest months ranges from {{convert|100|to|180|mm|in|0|sp=us}}. The annual average rainfall is {{convert|1270|mm|in|0|sp=us}}, although the average on the Paraná Plateau is {{convert|250|to|380|mm|in|0|sp=us}} greater. All subregions may experience considerable variations from year to year. Asunción has recorded as much as {{convert|208|mm|in|0|sp=us}} and as little as {{convert|560|mm|in|sp=us}} of annual rainfall; [[Puerto Bertoni]] on the Paraná Plateau has recorded as much as {{convert|3300|mm|in|0|sp=us}} and as little as {{convert|790|mm|in|0|sp=us}}.

In contrast to the Paraneña region, the Chaco has a tropical wet-and-dry climate bordering on semi-arid. The Chaco experiences seasons that alternately flood and parch the land, yet seasonal variations in temperature are modest. Chaco temperatures are usually high, the averages dropping only slightly in winter. Even at night the air is stifling despite the usually present breezes. Rainfall is light, varying from {{convert|500|to|1000|mm|in|0|sp=us}} per year, except in the higher land to the northwest where it is somewhat greater. Rainfall is concentrated in the summer months, and extensive areas that are deserts in winter become summer swamps.
