Isolated showers and some clouds throughout Dominican Republic… last night tropical storm Arthur formed

The anticyclonic circulation in middle levels of the troposphere is maintained influencing local conditions, causing an environment of little rain and few cloudy developments over much of the country; however, some showers will occur over the southeast, the Cordillera Central and the border area due to the east/southeast wind that transports some moisture content to our territory.

For Monday morning, the approach of a trough to the south of the country is expected, resulting in a slight increase in cloudy developments accompanied by light to moderate rains in the northeast, southeast, Central Cordillera, and southwest regions of the national territory.

ONAMET reports last night’s first tropical cyclone of the 2020 cyclone season, Tropical Storm Arthur, which is located in northeast Florida.  This phenomenon, due to its location and displacement, does not present a danger to the DR.

ONAMET continues to recommend that the population adopt measures to guarantee the rational use of water, due to the rainfall deficit that has been affecting our territory in recent months.
