Even so, scattered and insignificant showers are not ruled out over sectors of La Altagracia, La Romana, San Pedro de Macor\u00eds, Gran Santo Domingo, Monte Plata, San Crist\u00f3bal and isolated areas of the north.\n\nIndomet indicated that for this Thursday the approach of a tropical wave is expected, whose greatest cloud activity will remain in the waters of the Caribbean Sea, although it will continue to generate some isolated showers with thunderstorms from the first hours of the day, especially over the northeast, southeast, Central Mountain Range and southwest regions.\n\nIn addition, high temperatures will be maintained due to the incidence of warm east\/southeast winds and the presence of Saharan dust, so the population is advised to stay hydrated, wear light clothing, and avoid direct sun exposure for prolonged periods, especially between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.\n\nMaritime conditions\n\nThe agency also warned small and medium-sized vessels, mainly on the southwestern Caribbean coast, to remain in port due to offshore restrictions. On the Atlantic coast, from Saman\u00e1 to La Altagracia, precautionary measures are also maintained due to abnormal waves.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Republic Meteorology Institute (Indomet) reported that the meteorological environment of this Wednesday continues to be influenced by an upper-level trough, which, combined with the effects of daytime heating and the drag of humidity from the east and southeast wind, has generated moderate showers, thunderstorms and wind gusts during the afternoon.
