The National Meteorological Service (SMN) of Argentina has issued a yellow alert for storms set to occur on Thursday, February 26, indicating that six provinces will be impacted. The yellow alert signifies potential meteorological events that can cause damage and may temporarily interrupt daily activities. The areas under caution include southern Córdoba, San Luis, Mendoza, eastern San Juan, southern La Rioja, and Salta.

Meteorologists anticipate isolated storms, some of which may be particularly intense with expectations of hail, significant electrical activity, and substantial rainfall in short durations. Winds could also reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour. This alert aims to inform residents and authorities to take necessary precautions given the risks associated with these weather events.

The temperature in the capital is expected to hit a maximum of 26°C, meaning that while storms may bring variability in conditions, the warmth remains prevalent until the stormfront arrives.
