Manaus enfrenta período de estiagem, com baixa umidade do solo e da vegetação, o que reduz a evaporação e aumenta a conversão de energia solar em calor, elevando as temperaturas superficiais.
Manaus passou dos 38°C pela primeira vez em 2026, nesta terça-feira (22). Os termômetros marcaram 38,6°C às 15h, segundo dados do Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia (Inmet). A temperatura também representa um novo recorde de calor do ano na capital amazonense. A marca supera em 1°C os 37,6°C registrados em 1º de setembro, até então a maior temperatura de 2026.
Durante o período de estiagem, a menor umidade do solo e da vegetação também altera a forma como a energia solar é utilizada. Com menos água disponível para a evaporação, uma parcela maior dessa energia é convertida em calor, elevando a temperatura próxima à superfície.
