How the weather will be in the AMBA
In the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, the day started with fog of varying intensity during the morning. The temperature was around 9°C, with northeast winds not exceeding 12 km/h.
For the afternoon, mostly cloudy skies are expected with a maximum temperature reaching 16°C. The winds will continue blowing from the same sector at similar speeds.
By night, the sky will remain partly cloudy with a temperature of 13°C. Northeast winds will slightly intensify, ranging from 13 to 22 km/h.
These conditions reflect the typical contrast between the intense cold of the south and Patagonia compared to the more moderate temperatures in the center of the country. The SMN continues to monitor the evolution of the weather across the territory.
The arrival of cold at this time of year is common in the Patagonian regions, where sub-zero minimums are typical during autumn and winter. In the case of the AMBA, morning fog is a frequent phenomenon during these dates.
The low temperatures in the south impact the daily lives of the inhabitants, from the need for more heating to possible effects on traffic and services. Meanwhile, in Buenos Aires and its surroundings, the day appears gray but without extremes.
Specialists recommend staying attentive to updated forecasts, especially in the areas most affected by the cold, where frosts can be recorded.
