Meteorologist Raydel Ruisanchez warned this Monday about the arrival of a cold front that will affect Cuba in the coming days, bringing rain, thunderstorms, and a significant drop in temperatures.
According to the information shared on Facebook, a prefrontal band is expected to arrive on Wednesday, which will increase the likelihood of showers and storms in the western region.
This system will gradually move across the rest of the country, bringing heavy rains to more regions.
Starting Thursday, a mass of cold and dry air will begin to move into the island, resulting in unusually low temperatures for this season.
By the weekend, the cold will become more apparent with colder nights and early mornings, marking the onset of winter days in Cuba.
Ruisanchez noted that it is time to take out the coats and get ready for a cool and dry weekend.
In a comment, the meteorologist remarked that "a dry and cold winter is expected."
Lastly, he indicated that last weekend, temperatures were recorded "that reached cold levels in many inland areas of the country, with values close to 13°C."
In February, Cuba recorded a historic low temperature of 5 degrees Celsius in the town of Bainoa, located in the province of Mayabeque.
