The week of September 18 is emerging with mostly dry climatic conditions in the Metropolitan Regionalthough with lower temperatures than those typical of this time of year. According to Alejandro Sepúlvedajournalist specializing in Mega’s meteorology, “rainfall will be scarce in the central zone”And the cold will be noticed with minimums close to 6 ° C and maximum that will hardly exceed 18 ° C. While long -term forecasts have a certain margin of error, the current models are consistent in this projection.
For those who are already organizing the celebrations of National Holidaysthis news will be a relief: No important rains are expected in Santiago during that week. Sepúlveda was clear in stating that “there is no rain for Santiago”, and that the only thing that could be registered are weak and isolated showers in specific sectors of the pre -Forest, such as Farellones or San José de Maipo. Even in Barnechea, he said, “three drops could fall, and that’s.”
Forecast for the next few hours
In the short term, lThe situation remains stable with only some minor episodes of rain. For the next few hours, isolated showers are anticipated from inside Ñuble to the south, while in the Metropolitan Region on Tuesday there could be covered sky and, again, minimum rainfall in the pre -mountain area. Nothing that significantly affects outdoor activities.
However, Sepúlveda recommended staying attentive to the days Tuesday 9 and Wednesday, September 10since climatic models show a possible reactivation of rains in the central area for those dates. Although it is still early to affirm it with certainty, it could be the only period with precipitations prior to the national celebrations.
