Currently en República Dominicana — 31 de julio, 2023: Calor sofocante con lluvias moderadas

El tiempo, currently.

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.
