For this week it is expected that there will be a increase in temperatures and show up scattered rains during the afternoons and nights in some regions of the country, according to the weather forecast in Guatemala from October 28 to November 1, 2024 provided by the National Institute of Seismology, Volcanology, Meteorology and Hydrology —Insivumeh—.
The week begins with a weak influence of high pressure, which will cause the cold wind from the North to predominate. However, this will gradually decrease in the coming days, so maximum temperatures could increase.
Likewise, partially cloudy skies are expected that will alternate with periods of little cloudiness, as well as drizzle or scattered rain during the afternoon and evening in the northern, central, Bocacosta and southwestern regions of the country. These precipitations could decrease during the week and are associated with a weak high pressure system at the beginning of the week, as well as the passage or approach of an easterly wave, which could occur during the first days of the week or on the weekend. .
Due to the rains that have occurred in the northern regions, Insivumeh recommends that the population be alert to possible floods, river flooding, landslides or damage to the country’s road network.

Monitoring for possible depressions or tropical storms
The institution indicated that it is constantly monitoring a strong low pressure system that is moving towards the Caribbean part of Panama. He National Hurricane Center of the Central Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for Central Pacific Hurricanes ―NOAA― reported that the system has 0% of intensifying in the next 48 hours and 40% in the next few days.
The development of the system is gradual within a few days and could intensify into a tropical depression during the last days of the week or the weekend, while it begins its movement towards the north or northeast, to the center of the Caribbean Sea.
In the case of the Pacific Ocean, the Hurricane Center monitors two systems. One of them is located far from the American continent, while the second is a weak area of low pressure located 1,448 kilometers south-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. Although it could slowly intensify in the coming days, strong winds could stop its development.
