Currently en República Dominicana — 1 de agosto: Potencial de lluvias
Eric Holthaus & Jean Suriel
July 31, 2023
El tiempo, currently.
Potencial de lluvias
En las próximas 24 horas predominarán en República Dominicana algunas partículas de polvo del Sahara por lo que continuará la elevada sensación térmica en todo el país: el firmamento seguirá ligeramente brumoso por el polvo africano, mientras podrían desarrollarse este lunes algunas lluvias dispersas por la presencia de una vaguada en la región del Caribe.
El potencial de las lluvias estará presente hacia la Cordillera Central, zona fronteriza, noroeste, norte, sureste y noreste debido a la incidencia de la vaguada que estará en combinación con la onda tropical número 25.
Y dando seguimiento a la temporada ciclónica en el Atlántico, observamos la evolución de dos sistemas atmosféricos: el primero ubicado en el Atlántico central podría convertirse en depresión en los próximos dos a tres días; mientras que el segundo, se moverá al norte de Bahamas sin mayores posibilidades de desarrollo.

What you need to know, currently.
The numbers are in, and July 2023 will be the hottest month in recorded history — possibly in at least 120,000 years.
“These are the hottest temperatures in human history,” said Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, a division of the European Union.
According to the Berkeley Earth project, the odds are now 81% that this year will end up being the hottest in history. And since we’re in a strengthening El Niño, it’s already nearly certain that 2024 will be hotter than 2023.
I don’t care that it’s the hottest day in 100,000+ years. I care about what we’re doing to stop it from getting hotter and to help those least responsible for causing climate change to adapt.

At some level, records like these don’t matter much unless they are tied to stronger efforts to systematically phase out the fossil fuels that are responsible. Only then will meaningful climate action be possible.
Currently’s sister publication, The Phoenix, has published a list today of how each one of us can ramp up efforts to connect these climate disasters with the need for profound social change.
