Cold in Cuba: 21 reports of 10 degrees Celsius or less this morning

Last morning was “remarkably cold” in Cuba, according to the Institute of Meteorology (Insmet) of the island, which reported 21 stations with 10 or less degrees Celsius registered.

This was due to the “reinforcement of winter conditions with a mass of dry and stable air, which invaded much of western and central Cuba,” accurate the entity.

The lowest minimum temperature was recorded at the Colón meteorological station, in the province of Matanzas with 6.1 degrees Celsius. In addition, in Ciego de Ávila (6.2), Aguada de Pasajero (6.3) and Indio Hatuey (6.8) less than 7 degrees were also registered.

Meanwhile, another 17 stations had reports between 7 and 10 degrees Celsius, adds the Insmet.

The experts also highlighted that the Veguitas and Jucarito stations in the province of Granma, “benchmarks of heat for Cuba”, registered minimum temperatures this morning of 10.6 and 10.8 degrees Celsius, respectively.

In addition, they reported that at the Casablanca and Santiago de las Vegas weather stations, both in the capital of Cuba, the records were 17.2 and 11.7 degrees Celsius.

Meteorologist Elier Pila Fariñas confirmed on Twitter the drop in temperatures from Artemisa to Ciego de Ávila until 7:00 AM this Sunday, adding that they could have decreased more after that time.

The specialist explained that “the little cloudiness towards those regions favored the marked decrease”, while “limiting that in provinces such as Pinar del Río, Havana and the special municipality of Isla de la Juventud, they were so low.”

It is expected that the current mass of cold air will continue to affect Cuba in the coming days, although with a tendency to increase temperatures.
