HAVANA TIMES – Over the next few days there will be isolated showers and thunderstorms, with winds from the north and northeast with speeds between 9 and 15 mph. In the second half of this forecast period we can expect partly cloudy days with occasional showers in the afternoons and weak winds from the east and southeast.

The high temperatures will range between 26 and 33 °C (79 and 91 F), while the low temperatures will be between 19 and 20 °C (66 and 68 F). The sea surface temperature will be 26 °C (79 F).

Meteorological conditions:

A regime of high ocean pressures and moderate trade winds prevails over the Caribbean basin, affecting most of western Cuba. The proximity of a frontal system will increase isolated convection and precipitation starting Thursday. The rest of the term will see some isolated showers in the afternoons. The subtropical jet stream at medium levels of the atmosphere will cause the presence of high cloudiness over most of the territory.
