The National Meteorological Institute (IMN) predicts that Saturday, in particular, will combine high heat with considerable humidity, creating conditions ripe for scattered storms across multiple regions of the country.
While mornings are expected to remain relatively stable, the combination of atmospheric moisture and intense daytime heating will fuel the development of rain and storms later in the day. These conditions are typical for this time of year, as the country experiences its rainy season.
