In that sense, at night, the rains will decrease almost nationwide, except towards the southwest region, where some cloud increases with scattered precipitation will occur. Regarding temperatures, they will remain pleasant and cool, especially in mountainous areas and inland valleys, due to the time of year, where occurrences of fogs and mists are expected. On the Atlantic coast, from Cabo Engaño (La Altagracia) to Cabo Francés Viejo (María Trinidad Sánchez) we recommend operators of fragile, small and medium-sized vessels to remain in port, due to wind gusts and dangerous waves. For the rest of the Atlantic coastal perimeter, it is recommended to navigate with caution, without venturing out to sea. The Caribbean coast has returned to normal.

Summary: Moderate easterly winds and a trough will maintain favorable conditions for scattered showers to occur from early hours and throughout the day, especially in towns in the regions: north and northeast. In the afternoon until the early hours of the night, the precipitation will be in the form of moderate to heavy downpours with thunderstorms and wind gusts, towards the southeast region (especially El Gran Santo Domingo), Cordillera Central and border area. Recommendations are maintained on both coasts due to dangerous waves. Temperatures will remain cool and pleasant towards mountainous areas and valleys of the interior.
