  • Temperatures in Montevideo are expected to rise to 20°C or 21°C on Wednesday, Sept. 2, before conditions worsen late that day.
  • Rain on Thursday could produce 5 to 10 millimeters of precipitation, with greater instability in eastern and southeastern Uruguay.
  • Temperatures are expected to fall to maximums of 14°C to 15°C in Montevideo by the weekend.

Uruguay will move from warmer weather to rain and colder temperatures over the coming days. In Montevideo, temperatures are expected to keep rising through the first days of September and reach 20°C or 21°C on Wednesday, Sept. 2.

Meteorologist Mario Bidegain expects conditions to deteriorate during the final hour of Wednesday. Rain should continue through Thursday, with accumulated precipitation of between 5 and 10 millimeters.

The eastern and southeastern parts of Uruguay are expected to experience the most unstable conditions. In Montevideo and the metropolitan area, the clearest change will come after the rain system passes, when temperatures begin to fall.

Bidegain’s projection calls for maximum temperatures of only 14°C to 15°C in Montevideo on Saturday and Sunday, well below Wednesday’s expected readings. The forecast may change as the dates approach, and updates from Inumet and weather models will be important.
