THE Brazil is expected to face a new and powerful heat wave at the beginning of September . A mass of hot, dry air will settle over the country during the first week of the month and a new heat wave pattern will occur as of this Monday (2).
According to Climatempo, this type of phenomenon at this time of year and in the month of September is already common in much of Brazil, especially in areas of Central Brazil and the Center-West.
However, In recent years these heat waves have become increasingly intense, earlier and longer too. the weather company said. Furthermore, weather models indicate that this time the period is longer.
This could be a stronger heatwave than the first two recorded earlier this year between March, April and May. in terms of duration and temperatures
There is a possibility that in some areas the heat will persist until the middle of the second half of the month. The expectation of rain arriving in most of these areas is only between the second half of September and the beginning of October.
Low humidity
THE The first strong cold front of the new month is expected to advance only from September 19th and should start to move the atmosphere a little and bring in cooler air, reducing the heat in some states.
Until the cold front, the country is expected to face days of extreme heat with very low levels of air humidity, similar to those in desert regions which should further aggravate the fire situation in Central Brazil, according to Climatempo.
Furthermore, air humidity levels may reach emergency levels below 12% in many cities in southern Mato Grosso, inland São Paulo, Triângulo de Minas, central-north, northeastern Mato Grosso do Sul and southern Goiás.
With this, the dry weather conditions and the “still” atmosphere, the concentration of pollutants should also increase and the air quality should be compromised over the next few days.
