Santo Domingo.<\/strong>\u2013<\/em>\u00a0The Dominican Republic’s Meteorology Institute (INDOMET) reported that a trough will continue to affect the national territory, generating favorable conditions for the occurrence of showers, thunderstorms, and wind gusts during this Saturday and Sunday.<\/p>\n

For today, isolated showers are expected in the morning hours towards provinces in the east and northeast, such as La Altagracia, Saman\u00e1 and Mar\u00eda Trinidad S\u00e1nchez, due to the cloudiness carried by the wind.<\/p>\n

However, in the afternoon, the trough will cause a significant increase in cloudiness, with locally heavy showers and thunderstorms over provinces such as San Pedro de Macor\u00eds, El Seibo, Hato Mayor, Monte Plata, San Crist\u00f3bal, Santo Domingo, La Vega, Azua, San Juan, El\u00edas Pi\u00f1a, Independencia, Bahoruco, S\u00e1nchez Ram\u00edrez and Gran Santo Domingo. At nightfall, the rains will gradually decrease, leaving skies with scattered clouds in most of the country.<\/p>\n

The rainy pattern will continue this Sunday, when morning showers are forecast in locations on the Caribbean coast and, again in the afternoon, heavy downpours with thunderstorms and wind gusts in the northwest, northeast, southeast, Central Mountain Range and border area regions. The most affected provinces will include El Seibo, Hato Mayor, Saman\u00e1, Mar\u00eda Trinidad S\u00e1nchez, Monte Cristi, Dajab\u00f3n, Valverde, Santiago Rodr\u00edguez, Puerto Plata, Santiago, San Juan and El\u00edas Pi\u00f1a.<\/p>\n

In addition, a disorganized system of showers and thunderstorms located over the Central Atlantic is being monitored, which has a low probability (10%) of becoming a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours. Although it does not currently pose a threat to the Dominican Republic, authorities recommend staying tuned to the next official bulletins.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, ONAMET warns about the high temperatures caused by the time of year and the presence of Saharan dust in suspension. The population is urged to take preventive measures such as staying hydrated, wearing light-colored clothing, and avoiding prolonged exposure to the sun between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Special care should be taken by children and the elderly, who are more vulnerable to the effects of heat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
