However, the meteorological outlook will change significantly during the afternoon and into the night, when rainfall activity will intensify.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Provinces under rain alert<\/h3>\n\n<p>Rainfall, accompanied by thunderstorms and wind gusts, will be concentrated mainly in the following areas:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>La Altagracia and Hato Mayor<\/li><li>Monte Plata and San Crist\u00f3bal<\/li><li>Duarte and S\u00e1nchez Ram\u00edrez<\/li><li>Monse\u00f1or Nouel and La Vega<\/li><li>Santiago, San Jos\u00e9 de Ocoa and San Juan<\/li><li>El\u00edas Pi\u00f1a and Azua<\/li><li>Greater Santo Domingo (with higher incidence in the northern area)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p>In the National District, an increase in afternoon cloudiness is expected, which will lead to showers and electrical activity. Similarly, Santo Domingo North and West will record scattered downpours, while in Santo Domingo East, showers with thunderstorms will continue.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommendations for intense heat<\/h3>\n\n<p>Despite the rains, the environment will remain hot. Maximum temperatures will range between 34 \u00b0C and 36 \u00b0C, while minimums will be between 24 \u00b0C and 26 \u00b0C. Given this scenario, Alofoke Deportes shares the recommendations from Indomet:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Maintain constant hydration.<\/li><li>Use light clothing, preferably in light colors.<\/li><li>Avoid direct exposure to sunlight without proper protection.<\/li><li>Pay special attention to vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and pregnant women.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meteorological surveillance in the Atlantic<\/h3>\n\n<p>The meteorological agency is keeping two systems in the Atlantic Ocean under strict surveillance:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Cape Verde:<\/strong> A low-pressure area to the south-southeast has a 60% chance of becoming a tropical cyclone in the next two days and 70% in a week.<\/li><li><strong>Bermuda:<\/strong> A system of showers to the east-northeast has a 40% chance of cyclonic development.
