General Review
Periods of intense downpours continue in the country in the coming days. The first of them during this Thursday and Friday due to the presence and high instability shown by the Intertropical Convergence Zone. The second during Monday and Tuesday of next week due to the passage of tropical wave #3 combined with other atmospheric factors in the region.
The regions that show the greatest potential for heavy rainfall are the Pacific Slope and the Northern Zone, followed by the Central Valley and the Caribbean mountains. This rainy activity will take place in the afternoon and early evening periods. On the other hand, the Caribbean coast and surrounding plains have a greater probability of rain from Sunday to the beginning of next week in the early mornings and mornings.
