Fourth quarter 2016
The great climatic anomalies that characterized the 2015 gradually weakened during the first half of 2016, with which the climatic variables returned to their normal values or very close to these in the second half of the year.
For the second season of high rains (October 5 - December 6), under the incidence of cold conditions in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, there were rains between 20% and 50% above the usual ones for the time. The values of air temperature, temperature oscillation, solar radiation and evaporation were between normal and low; while air humidity and the number of days with precipitation had values between normal and high.
Projection
First quarter 2017
For the low rainy season of the first half of the year (Dec 16 - Feb 15), probably under the effect of a new La Niña phenomenon in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, abundant rains are expected (20% - 50% above normal or climatological values) or normal rainfall (80% - 120% above these values). The month that could be most affected is February.
Air temperature, temperature fluctuation, solar radiation and evaporation will show values between low and normal with respect to the climatological means. High and normal values are expected for air humidity and the number of days with precipitation.
Production date: November 22, 2016
