Weekly outlook

From November 4th to November 10th, 2024

 

General Review

This week, an unstable atmospheric pattern accompanied by a high level of humidity in the region will persist, favoring the recurrence of rain in Costa Rica; with greater accentuation in the Pacific regions.

Between Monday and Tuesday, the indirect influence of tropical depression 18 (DT 18) will continue in the country; starting on Wednesday, the effects of this system will begin to gradually decrease, when it enters the Gulf of Mexico. It should be noted that, according to the analyses, DT 18 will continue to intensify as it moves northwest.

In addition, OT #45 is moving over the Caribbean Sea; it is estimated that between Thursday and Friday it will enter the country, which will continue to generate instability and the possibility of rain.

Finally, during the weekend, the Intertropical Convergence Zone near southern Central America will promote a rainy outlook, especially in the afternoon period.
