Rio starts the week with cloudy skies and rain; see the forecast for the week

In the morning, the rain may increase in intensity at times and become moderate. From the afternoon onwards, the possibility of moderate rain is restricted to the Mountain Region.

“The week in Rio de Janeiro begins with the influence of the circulation of the post-frontal high pressure system, favoring the entry of fresh, humid air from the sea to the continent,” said meteorologist Hana Silveira, from Climatempo.

The Brazilian Navy issued a surf warning for the stretch between Ilhabela, on the coast of São Paulo, and Arraial do Cabo, in the Lakes Region of Rio de Janeiro. The forecast is for waves of up to 2.5 meters high. The alert is valid until 9am this Monday.

On Tuesday (20), although the sun may appear at times, the sky will remain predominantly cloudy in the state. There is a forecast of isolated drizzle and light rain, and the maximum temperature is expected to reach 24°C.

Until Thursday (22), the positioning of the high pressure system over the sea and the circulation of high-altitude winds should keep the sky with many clouds and few sunlight. The forecast indicates rain, but with low volumes.
