The weather forecast for the capital of São Paulo is for heavy rain, with a risk of flooding, flooding and landslides in the most vulnerable areas between Thursday (26) and Friday (27). The alert comes from the Climate Emergency Management Center of São Paulo City Hall (CGE).
The CGE explains that the intense volume of rain is due to the formation of the first South Atlantic Convergence Zone (ZCAS) this summer, season that started last Saturday (21). “It is a band of clouds that extends from the north of the country, aligned with a cold front on the southeast coast”, explains the agency in a note.
Tomorrow (24), Christmas Eve, should be characterized by lots of clouds and discontinuous drizzle during the early hours of the morning and into the early hours of the morning. In the afternoon and the end of the day, there is a greater probability of alternating between cooler weather and short periods of sunshine. Temperatures should vary between a minimum of 19°C in the morning and a maximum of 25°C in the afternoon, with air humidity percentages between 65% and 95%.
For next Wednesday (25th), Christmas Day, the forecast is for cloudy skies in the early morning, with a temperature of around 19°C and a weak wind from the northeast/east. The sun should appear between clouds and the tendency is to temperature increases throughout the day.
The maximum temperature must be 28°C and the minimum humidity level must be around 52%. Between the beginning and end of the afternoon, there are likely to be isolated showers of rain, while, at night, there is a greater chance of storms, with the formation of flooding. The unstable weather lasts until dawn the next day.
The Civil Defense of the State of São Paulo emphasizes that the entire Christmas period must be marked by intense rains. The regions with the highest propensity are the North Coast, Vale do Paraíba, South Coast, the capital of São Paulo, the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo, the Campinas Region, Sorocaba and Bauru.
