Spring, summer, fall or winter, nowadays it doesn’t matter what season of the year it is given the recent climate change that turns an afternoon of scorching sun into a storm in the blink of an eye.
Checking the weather has become a habit among many people to know what to wear, what shoes to choose, plan a trip or decide whether or not to carry an umbrella. Below we present the weather in Monterrey.
During the day temperature will reach a maximum of 25 degrees, the probability of rain It will be 0%, with a cloudiness of 17%, while the wind gusts will be 35 kilometers per hour.
As for UV rays, they are expected to reach a level of up to 5.
The best season to go to the royal capital is from January to August and from October to December, a season in which there is a warm or hot climate, where There is hardly any rain and with temperatures ranging from 27 to 35 degrees.
Because temperatures are extremely high in summer, the capital experiences a drought that reaches its peak between July or August, a time that is also known as “canícula”.
In contrast, the rainy season begins in the fall, with the ninth month of the year being the month with the most rainfall; however, there have been occasions when storms have occurred that leave severe flooding between April and June. In January, the coldest month, the thermometer drops to an average of 14 degrees although the “coldest day” it is usually recorded in February.
Mexico is a benefited country, because its geographical position (its outlet to the Caribbean Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the division made by the Tropic of Cancer) makes it a megadiverse region, being home to at least 12% of the world’s species, 12 thousand of which are endemic.
Although the Tropic of Cancer divides the country into two climatic zones –one temperate and the other tropical– the truth is that the altitude, latitude and the distribution of land and water mean that in the national territory up to seven types of weather are identified: warm sub-humid, dry, semi-dry, dry desert, warm humid, temperate sub-humid, temperate humid and cold.
In this context, it is not surprising that in the upper parts of Chihuahua the thermometer reaches -30 degrees of temperature, while in the Mexicali desert, equal to the north of the country, it rises to register 50 degrees Celsius.
According to the National Meteorological Service, the average annual temperature of the country is 19 degrees, however, there are cities like Mexicali, Culiacán, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo, Torreón, Saltillo and Monterrey where temperatures are extremely high.
As proof of this is San Luis Rio Coloradoa city located in Sonora and located on the border of the Great Altar Desert of Baja California and the state of Arizona and which is well known for holding the record for the highest temperature recorded in the country, after the 6 July 1966 the thermometer rose to mark 58.5 degrees Celsius.
In contrast, the lowest temperature recorded in history It was that of December 27, 1997, when the thermometer dropped to -25 degrees in the Chihuahuan municipality of Madero.
However, this variety of climates have been affected in recent years by the climate change and experts foresee a discouraging future for the country with a considerable reduction in annual rainfall and a considerable increase in temperatures.
The havoc has already begun to affect farmers and ranchers due to droughts or severe floods, while in hot seasons there has been an increase in the number of environmental contingencies in the main cities, as is the case From Mexico City.
