Hurricane season ends with 18 cyclones and light damage

Santo Domingo.- The hurricane season concludes today with 18 cyclones and one potential cyclone. Only one hurricane, Beryl, caused damage to the country, and it was minor.

The phenomenon, which touched the territory slightly on July 2, brought rain, thunderstorms, and high waves.

The Institute of Meteorology (Indomet) report states that among those formed, 11 were hurricanes, five reached intense intensity, seven were tropical storms, and the potential, whose lack of circulation prevented it from growing.

It indicates that on August 1, an area of downpours and thunderstorms crossed to the north and raised the waves. The next day, in Cuba, it became a tropical storm and then Hurricane Debby.

Shortage

The weather report for today establishes that the scarce rainfall will be in the afternoon, when the effects of the diurnal cycle and a trough on the surface will induce showers and thunderstorms over localities of the Caribbean coastal coast, mountains, and eastern plain, such as Monte Plata, El Seibo, Monte Plata, La Vega, Monseñor Nouel, San Juan, Sánchez Ramírez, Santiago, and El Seibo.

The Emergency Operations Committee (COE) discontinued the alerts for seven provinces and only kept Puerto Plata and Duarte in green.

Indomet reported that temperatures will be slightly hot during the day. However, they will drop to cool in the early morning and morning, especially towards the hills and valleys.

In conclusion, scattered clouds over much of the country, isolated rains in some locations, and normal waves throughout the coastal coast are the summary.

The agency predicts that a smaller air mass will continue the limitation tomorrow. It only foresees that a surface trough to the northwest and the effects of daytime heating will cause an increase in clouds in the afternoon accompanied by isolated downpours and occasional thunderstorms over provinces of the northeast, east, and central mountain ranges.
