Uberlândia and region to have above-average rainfall in the last week of October

The last week of October promises greater climatic instability in the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba regions. Forecasts indicate that there will be rainfall exceeding the historical average, along with temperatures that may be close to or even 1°C below the usual values for this time of year, covering the period from Monday, the 26th, to Sunday, the 1st.

According to the meteorological bulletin prepared by geographer William Borges, using projections from the European model ECMWF, the greatest concentration of clouds and the occurrence of precipitation may lead to a decrease in maximum temperatures throughout the week.

Projections indicate above-average rain

Estimates point to precipitation ranging between 10 and 40 millimeters above the weekly climatological average in much of the Triângulo Mineiro and Alto Paranaíba. Borges clarifies that these figures represent only the difference compared to the historical average, not the total expected rainfall volume for the week. He adds that this means the area may record higher than usual rainfall volumes for the period.

The rains may manifest irregularly, presenting moderate to heavy intensity showers in specific locations. There is also a possibility of thunderstorms, electrical discharges, and wind gusts.

Air humidity is expected to increase

Due to the higher frequency of rainfall and the presence of clouds, air humidity is expected to be maintained at adequate levels in most of the region, which tends to reduce long periods of drought. However, relative humidity may temporarily drop during sunny intervals, especially in the afternoon.

The combination of available atmospheric humidity, daytime heating, and unstable conditions will favor the formation of heavy clouds at various times during the week.

Check minimums and maximums for some cities
