Now, the intense winter cold that hits southern Argentina has also moved to the rest of the national territory in recent hours, and All meteorological models suggest that a stage has begun with temperatures that will be anomalously cold in the southern region of South America, lasting even in the first days of July.
Due to the recent cold front that caused temperatures to drop sharply in the center and north of the country, Another important reinforcement of polar air will be added this week, which will be accompanied by more snow, rain, and a freezing next weekend in Argentina.

In the central strip the cold continues to worsen, and the marks fell to values of almost 4 °C below zero in Villa Reynolds (San Luis). In the Pampeana region, there were records of up to almost 1 °C below zero in the center and southwest of Buenos Aires, while similar values in thermal sensation were recorded in the Buenos Aires suburbs.where the moderate south wind was felt.
The day will pass with variable cloudiness throughout the central strip of the country, particularly with some showers in the coastal sector of the Province of Buenos Aires.
In Patagonia, the extreme cold strikes the note once again this Monday morning, with minimum marks of -14 °C in Río Gallegos and -12 °C in Rio Grande. Both locations have the particularity that For almost a week, temperatures have been permanently below 0°C.which denotes how extremely anomalous and persistent the situation is.
On Tuesday there will be a general increase in the west wind throughout Patagonia, and This will ultimately promote a slight rise in temperatures. There will be a deterioration in the central and southern mountain range area, with new snowfalls of varying intensity.
The center and north of Argentina will present little change in temperatures for Tuesday, with skies between partly cloudy and cloudy. Over the provinces of the Litoral, the north of Buenos Aires, and the Federal Capital, isolated rains may occur starting in the afternoon or evening..
A new polar cold front will arrive in Argentina this week
Transiting mid-week, between Wednesday and Thursday, The entire northern half of the country will register a slight rise in temperatures, under conditions of good weather and north-northwest winds that will leave a couple of much milder afternoons.
Simultaneously, in Patagonia, a new pulse of cold air with polar characteristics will be entering, with snowfall that will continue in mountainous areas and will extend even to the northern Patagonian portion, strong westerly winds with gusts, progressively changing to the south, and snowfall that could once again reach the plateau areas of Chubut and Santa Cruz, although with accumulated values not comparable to everything that fell last week.
This new polar cold front will be arriving with force in the central strip of the country during the course of Friday, with strong gusts from the south and a marked drop in temperatures.
Next weekend promises to leave two of the coldest days of the entire year in central and northern Argentinawith low thermal sensation and also generalized frosts.
