The city of São Paulo is set to see lower temperatures this week, with forecasts from the National Institute of Meteorology indicating that temperatures will not exceed 24°C until Thursday, July 12. The minimum temperature could drop to 16°C on Wednesday and Thursday. The forecast suggests persistent rainfall throughout the week, caused by humid winds from the ocean and atmospheric instability from the interior of the state, leading to high chances of precipitation.

The Central Emergency Management Center (CGE) has warned of strong rain expected on Monday afternoon, July 9, alongside risks of flooding in the city. The continued rainfall raises the likelihood of landslides in at-risk areas by Tuesday, July 10. As a response to this situation, the city entered a state of attention over the weekend, and the Civil Defense has issued severe alerts to keep residents informed and prepared for potential emergencies stemming from the inclement weather.

This week’s weather forecast highlights the challenges faced by São Paulo in terms of climate variability and the impacts on urban management. With ongoing concerns about flooding and landslides, the local government is likely to remain vigilant in monitoring the situation and offering support to affected communities, ensuring public safety prevails amidst the changing weather patterns.
