Rain is expected to return only at the end of the month in the Central-South region of Brazil.

According to the new VIP Report climate of DATAGRO, based on the maps of European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF)The second half of April is expected to be marked by little rain and high temperatures across much of Brazil. Rainfall is expected to be concentrated in the Matopiba region, especially in the northern part, due to the influence of [unclear – possibly "the weather pattern"]. Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)In other areas, the weather tends to remain drier. In the South, rain is expected between April 26th and 27th, after the passage of a cold front. This system may also bring rain to the Central-South region in the following days, but without significant volumes. Minas Gerais and Goiás should be the states with the lowest recorded rainfall during this period. Regarding temperatures, the trend is for them to remain above the climatological average throughout the second half of April. The cold front expected at the end of the month should only alleviate the heat in the South. In the central part of Brazil — encompassing the interior of São Paulo, the Triângulo Mineiro, Goiás, and the northwest of Mato Grosso do Sul — a period of high temperatures is expected. The ECMWF temperature anomaly model indicates deviations between 3°C and 6°C above average, which may characterize the formation of a heat wave in the region.
