One of the most beautiful places on Earth. We try to go there every winter when the weather is mild and the rainy summer season is away. In July (our winter down here) the sky in northwest Argentina is of the purest blue and at that altitude the sun is surprisingly powerful just like summertime. Love to go back there in the rainy season for the contrast of colours between the skies and mountains but you have to watch out for unexpectedly fast overflowing rivers. A MUST for everyone coming over.
The topography in this part of the world is amazing. It reminded me of Arizona when I visited in August 1992, where I could see storms a few miles away and how one chased me from the mountains as I drove 60 mph to beat it without success. I wish there were more weather-related stories south of the equator because the storms down there are really amazing.
I wonder if the storms ever rotate? Do they get supercell storms as well? Monster hail? But my main question is...how about tornadoes? I'd think they'd get them there. But perhaps there isn't enough of a population to see or report them. I'd would love to know. Thanks if anybody can help me on this. BTW...on a map of Argentina, where exactly is this place?
There are some pretty nasty hail falling down on Argentina every once in a while, that has claimed lives.
There was a tornado out on the Rio de la Plata, the wide river between Uruguay and Argentina, a few years ago. It's not normal, though. In fact, it's the only one I've heard of.
The area in the film is from the north-west of the country, just south of Bolivia. If you like the landscape, Bolivia is the place to go. This place is easily reached from there.
