Heat and humidity in the middle of May: Matías Bertolotti's forecast for the AMBA

The forecast by Matías Bertolotti for this Thursday, May 15 anticipates an unstable day in Buenos Aires City and surrounding areas. High humidity, atypical heat for this time of year, and the possibility of storms will be the main features.

With 20.4°C (68.7°F) at dawn, the specialist warned that the warm and humid air not only causes discomfort but also risk of isolated showers.

How is the weather today, Thursday, May 15, in the AMBA?

During the first part of the day, showers or isolated storms may occur, even without prior notice. Bertolotti emphasized that the humidity is so high that the wet pavement doesn't dry, especially in areas like Constitución.

In the afternoon, a temporary improvement and a rise in temperature are expected. The maximum will be around 24 to 26 degrees (75.2 to 78.8°F), depending on cloudiness and proximity to the river. However, the thermal sensation will be higher due to humidity.

Towards the night, the weather deteriorates again. New storms or rain are expected, especially in Buenos Aires City and the suburbs. The instability will continue until the weekend.
