The last week of August began with a marked drop in temperatures in Argentina, but weather conditions will change towards a more temperate and unstable climate in the coming days. The month will close with significant rainfall in the central region of the country after the formation of a new cyclogenesis and coinciding with the Santa Rosa storm.
Thus, the traditional storm, which sometimes arrives early and sometimes late, will arrive precisely in Buenos Aires and the Río de la Plata area in 2025. A process of cyclogenesis will develop over the east of the country, for the third time in three consecutive weeks, generating a low pressure center that will cause widespread bad weather, according to Meteored.
On Friday, rain and thunderstorms are expected in much of northern and central Argentina, with greater intensity in the afternoon and evening in the southern Litoral, northern Buenos Aires, the Federal Capital and the Río de la Plata. These conditions will continue until Saturday, then extending to the southeast of Buenos Aires, accompanied by strong winds that will change from the east to the south-southwest.
Rainfall of more than 50 mm is expected in less than 48 hours, with wind gusts that could exceed 60 km/h, especially in the coastal areas of Buenos Aires. This situation could lead to a significant rise in the Río de la Plata, which would further complicate the situation in low-lying and flood-prone areas.
While the storm is expected, the National Meteorological Service has not issued any significant warnings for the coming days, except for the cold in the northeast of the country. The weather will be stable until Thursday, with clear skies and a gradual increase in temperatures in central and northern Argentina. However, in Patagonia some gusts of wind and slight instability in mountainous areas could be recorded, according to Meteored.
