Climatempo Experts Indicate Delay in Rainfall, and Economic Sectors Are Already Feeling the Effects
The prolonged drought affecting the Northern region of Brazil has raised concerns. Assessments from Climatempo, a reference in meteorological consultancy in Latin America, suggest that this drought is expected to persist, delaying the arrival of rain until early December.
Climatic Phenomena in Conjunction
Recent studies by Climatempo have revealed that we are facing the second-largest drought since the Pacific Ocean warming event in 2009-2010. “The current El Niño, in combination with warming in the North Atlantic, is drastically affecting climatic patterns in the North,” comments Willians Bini, expert and spokesperson for Climatempo. This scenario is likely to extend the drought until the summer of 2023/2024, even with the anticipated relief from rains at the end of November.
Economic and Social Impacts of the Drought
Climate change has direct effects on the economy and well-being of communities. Waterways, vital for transporting products from the Free Trade Zone of Manaus and agricultural commodities, such as the Negro, Amazon, and Tapajós rivers, are facing critical water levels. Bini highlights: “Logistical problems for large vessels are evident. Furthermore, farmers face financial challenges and compromised yields due to the drought.”

Not only the economy suffers, but hydropower generation is also at risk due to reduced river flow, such as that of the Madeira. The local population faces water shortages, limiting access to essential water resources, influencing food, hygiene, and exacerbating health issues.
Preparation and Business Strategy Facing Climate
In light of climate challenges, Climatempo emphasizes the importance of companies adequately preparing. “We are at a moment where climate analysis is crucial. For businesses operating in the North, it is the difference between prosperity and adversity,” states Bini. He also highlights the monitoring services offered by Climatempo, which assist companies and governments in facing climate adversities.
