The National Meteorological Service (SMN) announces that the minimum and maximum temperatures will increase until reaching

In the Capital and the province of Buenos Aires the scenario is similar, but

: the maximum for Friday and Saturday would be around 27 degrees, although due to the humidity the

would be higher.

The minimums, in addition, will exceed 20 degrees.

In more than half of the Argentine territory the climate will show this behavior, with the added nuance that in some provinces, such as Tucumán and Jujuy, the gradual rise of the thermometer will be the corollary of abundant

The phenomenon is part of what had been announced:

The historical climate average for April indicates maximums of 22 degrees and minimums of 16. This year, on the other hand, the cold took longer to arrive and -after the debut of low temperatures- lasted relatively little, to once again give rise to complicit

In the rest of the country, the forecast conditions are normal for the time.

This scenario occurs while the

Due to the

If mosquitoes knew how to laugh, there would probably be an answer in that gesture.
