Brazilian Navy warns Rio residents about hangovers on the beaches of Niterói and Rio

An alert was given by the Brazilian Navy about a surf on the beaches of Niterói and Rio de Janeiro. The forecast is that the waves will vary between 2.5m and 3 meters in height in a southwest/south direction, from the beginning of this Thursday (16) from 6 am until 9 am on Saturday.

The appearance of the hangover was announced by “Alert Rio” and is caused by the transport of moisture from the ocean to the continent, that is, the passage of a cold front in the city, this Wednesday (15).

The forecast is for isolated light rain, winds will be weak and the maximum temperature will be 28ºC. We can expect unstable weather through the weekend. This Thursday, there will be a lot of fog with drizzle or isolated rain in the early hours of the morning. Friday (17) will be a day of stable weather, with less cloudiness and no rain and moderate winds.

In percentage terms, the relative humidity will be between 21% and 30% in some parts of the city. According to “Alerta Rio”, on Saturday (18), it is expected to be cloudy, with cloudy skies but no rain. And on Sunday (19), the weather will be marked by a cold front in the ocean with increased cloudiness and isolated rain, less than 5mm/h, starting in the afternoon with a predominance of moderate winds.
