The Observatory of Natural Phenomena (Ofena) predicts that for this weekend, June 4 and 5, there will be scattered rains in Nicaraguan territory, due to the area of instability that has been detected in the Gulf of Mexico, which may eventually form a tropical cyclone in that area.
The engineer Agustín Moreira, director of the organization, explained that the expected temperatures for the next few days are between 31 and 29 degrees for the western part of the country, while in the central zone a temperature between 27 and 23 degrees will be reached.
“When we don’t have rains, steam and humid heat increase, which many people say rains generate more heat, but the trend is that low temperatures will be present at noon,” Moreira stressed.

Likewise, he announced that a tropical wave is approaching Nicaragua, but it will disintegrate on the southeast side of the country during the next few days, which can cause rainfall in the Caribbean and Pacific territory.
The agrometeorologist urged Nicaraguan citizens to be alert to the possibility of landslides or landslides that may occur with rains that last more than an hour. “You have to be very careful with this type of behavior, as they can occur in highly vulnerable and high-risk areas,” he said.
Similarly, he called for taking the corresponding precautions against the possible electrical discharges that occur with the rains during this weekend, for which he asked Nicaraguans to avoid being near metal structures or being outdoors using electronic objects because it can attract some sudden electric shock. In addition, he requested to stay away from wet places and away from the cables that support power lines, as they are conductors of energy.
