The National Meteorological Office (Onamet) forecast for Friday afternoon and evening, November 11, "isolated showers and thundershowers in some areas of the northwest, southeast, southwest and Cordillera Coral."
While for Saturday, "the same weather pattern will be maintained, the effects of the high-pressure system will be favoring an environment of scattered cloudiness and scarce precipitation over the national geography."
According to Onamet, occasional cloudiness is expected in the afternoon, accompanied by scattered showers and thunderstorms, due to the humidity left by the tropical wave, in addition to the local effects of daytime heating.
