SANTO DOMINGO – Meteorological authorities in the Dominican Republic have confirmed the gradual dissipation of the frontal system that recently impacted the nation, signaling a substantial improvement in overall weather patterns. The latest assessment from the Dominican Institute of Meteorology (Indomet) indicates a nationwide decline in precipitation activity.
While isolated morning showers may persist in specific northern and eastern provinces—including Puerto Plata, Espaillat, Hermanas Mirabal, La Altagracia, El Seibo, and Samaná—the majority of the country can anticipate predominantly clear skies. Meteorological analysis attributes the minimal cloudiness to an incoming low-humidity air mass. Isolated afternoon precipitation remains possible in elevated mountainous and densely forested regions due to localized climatic effects.
Despite the improving forecast, the Emergency Operations Center (COE) has issued continued public safety warnings. Officials emphasize that rivers, streams, and ravines continue to pose significant threats due to persistently high water levels, powerful undercurrents, and reduced water clarity. The population is strongly advised to avoid all aquatic recreational activities and refrain from attempting to cross flooded waterways. The COE reiterated the importance of heeding official directives and maintaining vigilance by monitoring subsequent weather advisories for further developments.
