Weather predictions, based on observation and mathematical modelshelp forecast the state of the atmosphere at a given time and location based on various relationships such as temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation or wind.
Weather forecasts are exercises that have been carried out for hundreds of years, even before the Christian era, basically relying on the observation of cloud patterns, the wind, the time of year, although initially these they were unsuccessful.
It was not until the advent of new technologies (such as computers) that mathematical models began to be put into operation that made it possible to achieve more accurate predictions, becoming a fundamental factor for the transportation (by land, sea or air), agriculture, tourism, disaster prevention, public health and even military operationsbeyond deciding whether or not to carry an umbrella or what outfits to put on.
Below is the state of the weather for the next few hours in Montevideo:
In Montevideo it is forecast a maximum temperature of 32 degrees Celsius and a minimum of 19 degrees Celsius.
As for the rain the probability of precipitation for this city will be 0% during the day and 0% during the night.
In the same sense, the cloudiness will be 0% during the day and 0% during the night. While the wind gusts will reach 41 kilometers per hour during the day and 37 kilometers per hour at night.
Beware of the sun, UV rays are expected to reach a level of up to 11.
This is the weather in Montevideo
Montevideo It has a humid subtropical climate with a average annual temperature of 16.7 degreesbeing relatively temperate during almost the whole year.
Due to its location, in a medium latitude, the seasons are well defined, mainly winter (from June to August) and summer (December to February), although there is usually wind practically all year round as it is a coastal city.
In winter it can occur precipitation and fog, as well as a decrease in temperature to zero degrees and, although snowfall is non-existent, a hot winter with temperatures that sometimes rise to 20 degrees is not. Spring and fall are mild.
On the other hand, during the summer heat waves are common with highs around 35 degrees and lows of 20 degrees. It is worth mentioning that the population should pay special attention to UV rays, as they are usually more intense than in the rest of the planet due to the geographical location of the country.
As for the temperature records, the record for the lowest has been -5.6 degrees, while the maximum has marked 42.8 degrees. The only time that snowfall was recorded was on July 13, 1930 during the first game in the history of the Soccer World Cup.
What is the weather in Uruguay?
Uruguay It is a country with a temperate-humid climate, with hot summers and cool winters that also, due to its geographical location and its proximity to the ocean, presents a double rainy season between spring-summer and autumn.
The country has an average temperature of 17 degrees a year, however, there is a very marked difference in their territory: the northwestern region where Artigas, Salto and Rivera are located is warmer with an average of 18 degrees; while the southeast, where Montevideo, Maldonado, Rocha and Lavalleja are, are cooler, with an average of 16 degrees.
Given the strong winds that occur in the country, the summers are less extreme and the winter is cooler, which also causes cold waves that especially affect the north and south of the center. Only in one month up to 25 frosts can be registered.
Just on January 15, 2022, the country registered a new record for the highest temperature In his story, when the Uruguayan Institute of Meteorology (Inumet) He pointed out that the maximum in Florida had reached 44 degrees, equaling the mark of January 20, 1943. On the contrary, the coldest was that of Mercedes on July 29, 2007 with -7.6 degrees.
Scientists warn that due to the effects of climate change Uruguay could have an increase in temperature up to three degrees in the year 2100as well as an increase in rainfall.
