  1. Most of Brazil, however, has moderate rainfall of between 1,000 to 1,500 millimetres (39 to 59 inches) a year, with most of the rain falling in the summer, between December and April..

    but Brazil it self can be divided into 4 region based on it's climate variation..

    so i'll give you each of they annual rainfall:

    1. The Amazon Basin

    This is the largest area in the world with a typical equatorial climate. Rainfall is everywhere above 1,500 mm/60 in a year and in much of the region over 2,000 mm/80 in.

    2. The Brazilian Plateau

    This region is as large and extensive as the Amazon basin but, lying farther south and being at a moderate altitude, it has a very different climate. There is a much more distinct wet and dry season, and both the daily and annual temperature ranges are quite marked. With the exception of the northeast of this region, in the valley of the river São Francisco and the province of Ceará, annual rainfall is about 1,250 mm/50 in – 1,500 mm/60 in.

    3. The East Coast within the Tropics.

    This long, narrow region extends from south of the mouth of the Amazon to Santos, and has a typically hot, tropical climate. There are, however, some important differences in the season of greatest rainfall from north to south. Near the mouth of the Amazon all months are wet but rainfall is greater in the months December to May, as shown by the table for Belém http://213.161.84.220/tables/TT001660.ht...  

    From about 3°S to Bahía at 14°S the wettest months are from May to August and the rest of the year is comparatively dry

    4. The Southern States of Brazil outside the Tropics

    This region consists of the southern states of Paraná, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul. Both along the coast and in the plateau districts inland the climate is warm-temperate rather than tropical, and is similar to that found in Uruguay and northern Argentina http://213.161.84.220/tables/TT001740.ht...

    some also say that Rainy areas correspond to Pará's coastal lands and western Amazonas, where annual rainfall greater than 3,000 millimeters. In Southeast on Serra do Mar (São Paulo State), recorded annual rainfall exceeds 3,500 millimeters. Drought areas located in interior Northeast, where annual rainfall under 500 millimeters

    hope this helps..
