The National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (INAMEH) forecasts for this Saturday, October 17, stable weather in much of the country with partial to clear skies in the morning, but with a chance of rain and showers in the afternoon.

Daytime warming and the activity of the Intertropical Convergence Zone generate an increase in cloudy areas with rain and drizzle in much of the country this Saturday afternoon and night.

In its daily bulletin, INAMEH estimates a mostly clear to partially cloudy sky in the morning; however, cloudy areas that generate rain or showers could form, especially in areas of Bolivar, Amazonas, areas of Apure, western Lara, the Andes and parts of Zulia.

Similarly, in the afternoon and evening hours, an increase in cloud cover is expected with the possibility of scattered rain or showers south of Bolivar, Amazonas, the Western Plains, the Andes and Zulia. In addition, scattered drizzles are not ruled out in the North Central Coastal region.

Meanwhile, in the states of Miranda, Capital District and La Guaira, partial cloud cover is expected in the early hours of the morning, with a chance of drizzle in mountainous areas. In turn, towards the afternoon and evening, a slight increase in cloud cover is likely, together with the occurrence of scattered rain or drizzle.

The northeastern wind will have speeds of around 10 km/h; while temperatures will range from a minimum of 18°C to a maximum that could reach 33°C in La Guaira.
