    Why are the seasons reversed in the Veld region as compared to the Prairies?

    Answer:

    The seasons are reversed in the Veld in South Africa as compared to the Prairies because the former is situated in the Southern Hemisphere while the latter is in the Northern Hemisphere. The Velds lie in the warm/ temperate zone and is influenced by two oceans?Indian and Atlantic and the cold Benguela current flows on the western side. Which makes the Veld region cooler, milder and pleasant. The summer temperature in December, January, and February is less than \[20{}^\circ C\] while \[5{}^\circ C\] to \[10{}^\circ C\] in July is the coldest month. The Prairies would be experiencing summer in July.
