Question: what is the average temperature in ecuador in january

title: Climate of Ecuador
text: The weather in Quito is consistent with that of a subtropical highland climate . The city has barely any cool air since it is close to the equator . The average temperature during the day is 70 ° F ( 21 ° C ) , which generally falls to an average of 50 ° F ( 10 ° C ) at night . The average temperature annually is 64 ° F ( 17.8 ° C ) . There are only really two seasons in the city : dry and wet . The dry season ( winter ) runs from June to September and the wet season ( summer ) is from October to May . As most of Ecuador is in the southern hemisphere , June to September is considered to be winter , and winter is generally the dry season in warm climates . Spring , summer , and fall are generally the `` wet seasons '' while winter is the dry ( with the exception of the first month of fall being dry ) .
