Scattered storms are expected for the Yucatan Peninsula

On Wednesday, August 2nd, the influx of humid air coming from the Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and Pacific Ocean will cause showers and occasional heavy rains in the northeast and central parts of the Republic, as well as in the states of the Yucatan Peninsula, as reported by the National Meteorological Service (SMN).

Specifically in the Yucatan Peninsula, partly to mostly cloudy skies are expected for most of the day, with heavy occasional rains in Campeche and showers in Yucatan and Quintana Roo, accompanied by lightning. Mild temperatures in the morning and hot during the afternoon. East winds of 10 to 25 km/h in the region, with gusts of 40 to 60 km/h in Campeche and Yucatan.

On the other hand, meteorologist Juan Antonio Palma from Meteorología Yucatán indicates that scattered storms are expected in the region today due to the interaction of the “Maya trough” with an upper-level vortex in the troposphere. Prior to the precipitation, a very hot atmosphere will be felt.
