Rain is expected to return to the South-Central region in the second half of June, according to DATAGRO.

According to the latest VIP Report from the DATAGRO, prepared based on data from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and from MeteoblueThe return of rains to the Central-South of Brazil should occur from next week, bringing relief to areas facing a long period of drought. In the coming days, the action of a high-pressure system associated with a mass of cold air should cause a new drop in temperatures in parts of the country. The most intense effects will be observed in the South and Southeast regions, as the system will act predominantly over the Atlantic Ocean. The peak of the cold is expected for next Sunday (7), when minimum temperatures could approach 5°C in western Paraná, Santa Catarina and southern Minas Gerais. So far, however, there is no forecast of frost. Subsequently, the weakening of this system will allow the advance of a cold front across the country, favoring the return of rains in areas of the Central-West, Southeast and Matopiba. According to DATAGRO, rainfall should intensify from June 12, reaching states such as Minas Gerais, Goiás, Mato Grosso and the Matopiba region. In some of these areas, especially in Matopiba, there has been no record of significant rainfall since the end of April. The forecast reinforces the scenario of a return of precipitation at the beginning of the second half of the month. Although June is traditionally one of the driest periods of the year in Central Brazil, with historical averages between 5 and 15 millimeters, the predicted volumes may contribute to maintaining soil moisture.
