A yellow weather warning has been issued for severe storms and strong winds affecting Buenos Aires, Argentina, with conditions expected to persist through Sunday and into Monday. According to the National Weather Service (SMN), heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and wind gusts exceeding 70 kilometers per hour are forecasted starting late Saturday and continuing throughout Sunday, September 20, and into Monday, September 21. The SMN predicts varying intensity storms during Sunday afternoon, some accompanied by heavy precipitation over short periods. Electrical activity and occasional hailfall could accompany these storms. The situation is likely to worsen in the latter part of Sunday, with increased instability over the city and surrounding areas. Accumulated rainfall is estimated at 30 to 50 millimeters, though this may vary depending on storm evolution. Strong winds are another key concern. On Sunday, winds will originate from the west before shifting southward, with speeds ranging from 30 to 45 kilometers per hour. Gusts could surpass 70 km/h, potentially causing issues such as falling branches, temporary flooding, and circulation difficulties during peak intensity periods. Residents are advised to secure items that might be displaced by wind, including pots, balcony objects, awnings, and other outdoor elements. The adverse weather conditions are expected to continue beyond Sunday’s storms. For Monday, September 21, the SMN maintains a yellow alert primarily linked to strong winds. Similar wind patterns, originating from the west and shifting southward, are anticipated, with speeds again between 30 and 45 km/h and gusts possibly exceeding 70 km/h. This comes amid the start of spring, marked by a temperature drop following the stormy day. The SMN recommends staying informed via official channels and avoiding outdoor activities during peak intensity times. It advises securing loose objects, keeping distance from trees, poles, and unstable structures, and avoiding flooded areas. Those caught outdoors during a storm should seek shelter until the intensity decreases.
