MIAMI.- South Florida is preparing for a rainy Monday. According to meteorologists, the day is expected to be marked by frequent showers and possible thunderstorms, with a chance of rain of 84%.
Forecasts indicate that rainfall could reach 2.3 liters per square meter, which suggests the possibility of moderate to heavy rain at some times of the day.
This weather pattern is consistent with typical December conditions in South Florida, characterized by mild temperatures and the possibility of frequent rain, according to experts.
What is expected
Residents and visitors to the area should prepare for a humid day, with temperatures ranging from a low of 21°C (70°F) to a high of 27°C (81°F).
The combination of these warm temperatures with high humidity, which is expected to reach 78%, will contribute to a feeling of muzzle or stifling heat.
In addition to the rains, northeasterly winds are forecast with speeds between 18 and 43 km/h, which could add a feeling of freshness to the environment despite the relatively warm temperatures.
This rainy forecast comes in a context of climate changes in the region. Although winter in Florida is generally expected to be warmer than normal due to the influence of the La Niña phenomenon, experts warn that periods of colder, wetter weather may still occur.
Recommendations
Meteorological authorities recommend that the population stay informed about forecast updates, as conditions could change quickly.
Residents and tourists are advised to carry umbrellas or raincoats, wear light, breathable clothing, and stay hydrated, especially if planning outdoor activities.
This rain pattern could extend beyond Monday, as December is typically a month with significant rainfall in South Florida. Long-range forecasts suggest the region could experience between 3 and 8 days of rain throughout the month.
Given this scenario, drivers are advised to use extreme caution on the roads due to the possibility of slippery roads and reduced visibility.
Additionally, residents should be prepared for potential disruptions to outdoor activities and consider alternative plans for scheduled events.
