Cyclone expected to increase hail risk on Monday

On Monday (5/25), the formation of a cyclone is expected to cause new storms throughout the Southern Region. The forecast also indicates the possibility of hail, especially in the western part of the southern states.

Despite the rain, cold weather continues to prevail in areas of the South and Southeast. In the gaucho and catarinense mountains, minimums can reach 4°C. In São Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Rio de Janeiro, the coldest areas are expected to register between 10°C and 12°C.

Central-West will have isolated showers and risk of storms

In the Central-West, the forecast indicates isolated showers in Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. The highest alert is in the central-east and southern Mato Grosso do Sul, southern Goiás, and southeastern Mato Grosso, where there is a risk of storms.

North and Northeast will also have areas under alert

In the Northeast, the highest volumes are expected to hit the south of Bahia, the coast between Aracaju and Maceió, and the northwest of Maranhão. There is also a forecast of isolated showers in the north of Piauí and Ceará.

A large part of the northeastern interior, however, remains drier with many clouds. Highs can reach 36°C in Ceará, while lows are around 14°C in the central-south of Bahia.

In the North Region, the Intertropical Convergence Zone favors rain showers with thunderstorms in the north of Amazonas, in Roraima, and Amapá. In the southeast of Pará, temperatures can reach 38°C. Acre, Rondônia, and Tocantins are expected to have more stable weather.
