most of Brazil is considered TROPICAL.

Answer:Brazil is a vast country. Its climate comprises a wide range of weather patterns; but most of the country is tropical. Brazil hosts these major climatic subtypes: equatorial, tropical, semiarid, highland tropical, temperate, and subtropical. The different climatic conditions produce environments ranging from equatorial rainforests in the north and semiarid deserts in the northeast, to temperate coniferous forests in the south and tropical savannas in central Brazil. Many regions have starkly different microclimates.

An equatorial climate characterizes much of northern Brazil. There is no real dry season, but there are some variations in the period of the year when most rain falls. Temperatures average 25 °C (77 °F), with more significant temperature variation between night and day than between seasons.

In the interior northeast, seasonal rainfall is heavy.

Over central Brazil rainfall is more seasonal, characteristic of a savanna.

The semiarid region generally receives less than 800 millimetres (31.5 in) of rain, most of which generally falls in a period of three to five months of the year and occasionally less than this, creating long periods of drought.

South of Bahia, near the coasts, and more southerly in most of the state of São Paulo, the distribution of rainfall changes, with rain falling throughout the year.

The south enjoys temperate conditions, with cool winters and average annual temperatures not exceeding 18 °C (64.4 °F); winter frosts are quite common, with occasional snowfall, hail or ice in the higher areas.
