A meteorologist predicted the weather for the weekend
Meteorologist Rafael Di Marco, in conversation with Cadena 3, anticipated that “there are some possibilities of snowfall in Punilla and Sierras Chicas, it will be a very cold weekend, which will not exceed 10 degrees, with temperatures below zero.”
Di Marco projected a very cold weekend. “Tomorrow, starting this morning, we are also expected to have a little more wind from the southern sector, which will lower the temperature even more. So we are going to start with a fairly cold Friday, cold Saturday and very cold Sunday “he explained.
According to their estimates, maximum temperatures will not exceed 10 degrees and minimum temperatures could drop to 0 degrees or even lower.
“Right now we have temperatures below zero,” said Di Marco, referring to the high mountains where it is already snowing. In places like the Cuenca Alta de Tabaquillo and Rodeo de los Caballos, temperatures range between zero and one degree below zero.
The expert assures that this is an anticipated winter phenomenon, similar to what occurred in 2021 when early snowfalls were also recorded in Córdoba. “It is a winter that was anticipated,” said Di Marco, predicting abnormally low temperatures for May and June.
Regarding the consequences of these climatic conditions in the productive area, Di Marco pointed out that, although frosts can bring significant losses, they are also necessary to combat pests such as the leafhopper. “It’s also good that we have a winter just so these things can go away,” he said.
In addition, the Meteorology technician anticipated the possibility of rain-snow in several areas of the province for the 26th. “This would be the fourth snowfall in the province of Córdoba in the month of May, but it would be the first major snowfall of the year” , he concluded.
