I have a friend who lives in Brazil, and it sounds like the humidity this time of year is being outplayed. The temperatures /humidity should be respectable for many of the venues.

The one venue that is certain to cause trouble is up in the Jungle in the northern part of the country (Manaus ).

It cites 4-5 venues like Forteleza and Manaus where humidity/heat will make a huge difference.  &#xD;&#xA;In other places like Sao Paulo it states that it won&#x27;t matter as much. &#xD;&#xA;Brazil is a huge country.  The weather in the south should be much milder (it&#x27;s winter in the southern hemisphere) than the north near the equator.
