This interaction will continue to cause <strong>local showers, thunderstorms, and possible wind gusts<\/strong> in specific points of the interior of the country, especially in the afternoon.\n\nDuring the afternoon and night of this Thursday, rainfall will be concentrated mainly in provinces such as <strong>Hato Mayor, Monte Plata, S\u00e1nchez Ram\u00edrez, Duarte, Saman\u00e1, Mar\u00eda Trinidad S\u00e1nchez, Santiago, Santiago Rodr\u00edguez, Dajab\u00f3n and Monte Cristi<\/strong>. In the rest of the national territory, the sky will remain partly cloudy or with a grayish tone due to the presence of African dust.\n\nFor Friday, a mixed scenario is expected. During the early morning and early hours of the day, <strong>isolated showers<\/strong> could occur in coastal provinces of the Caribbean, such as <strong>La Altagracia, El Seibo, Saman\u00e1, Barahona, Santo Domingo and San Crist\u00f3bal<\/strong>. However, from noon onwards, concentrations of <strong>Saharan dust<\/strong> will increase, which, together with the trough and a tropical wave near the area, will favor <strong>moderate to heavy rains<\/strong> accompanied by electrical storms and wind gusts in the northwest, north, southwest and border area.\n\nTemperatures will remain hot throughout the country, with highs between &#8220;33 \u00b0C and 35 \u00b0C&#8221; in urban areas and lows ranging between &#8220;21 \u00b0C and 23 \u00b0C&#8221;. Meteorological authorities urge the population to take preventive measures against the heat wave: hydrate frequently, avoid prolonged sun exposure, and take special care of children and the elderly.\n\nAs for Saturday, the forecast warns that from early hours there will be <strong>showers and thunderstorms in towns on the south and east coast<\/strong>, such as <strong>San Pedro de Macor\u00eds, La Romana, La Altagracia, San Crist\u00f3bal and Barahona<\/strong>. During the afternoon, the tropical wave will combine with the trough to intensify the rainfall in provinces of the <strong>northeast, southeast, north, Central Mountain Range and border area<\/strong>, gradually decreasing during the night.\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udd0e Forecast by provinces:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Provincia<\/th><th>Condiciones generales<\/th><th>M\u00e1x \u00b0C<\/th><th>M\u00edn \u00b0C<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Santiago<\/strong><\/td><td>Aguaceros y tronadas en la tarde.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>20-22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Puerto Plata<\/strong><\/td><td>Nublados con lluvias locales hasta entrada la noche.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>21-23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Duarte<\/strong><\/td><td>Nublados y tronadas dispersas hasta la noche.<\/td><td>30-32<\/td><td>20-22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Constanza<\/strong><\/td><td>Chubascos locales en la tarde.<\/td><td>26-28<\/td><td>11-13<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Peravia<\/strong><\/td><td>Cielo con nubes dispersas.<\/td><td>31-33<\/td><td>22-24<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>San Pedro de Macor\u00eds<\/strong><\/td><td>Poca nubosidad.<\/td><td>31-33<\/td><td>22-24<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>La Romana<\/strong><\/td><td>Mayormente despejado.<\/td><td>30-32<\/td><td>21-23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>La Vega<\/strong><\/td><td>Aguaceros aislados con tronadas.<\/td><td>31-33<\/td><td>20-22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Monse\u00f1or Nouel<\/strong><\/td><td>Nubes dispersas.<\/td><td>29-31<\/td><td>20-22<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>San Crist\u00f3bal<\/strong><\/td><td>Cielo opaco y soleado.<\/td><td>30-32<\/td><td>21-23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Saman\u00e1<\/strong><\/td><td>Chubascos aislados en la madrugada.<\/td><td>30-32<\/td><td>21-23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Monte Cristi<\/strong><\/td><td>Aguaceros con tronadas hasta entrada la noche.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>23-25<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Azua<\/strong><\/td><td>Chubascos locales y tronadas.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>21-23<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>San Juan<\/strong><\/td><td>Lluvias en zona monta\u00f1osa.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>18-20<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Barahona<\/strong><\/td><td>Nubes dispersas y posibles chubascos.<\/td><td>32-34<\/td><td>22-24<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>La Altagracia<\/strong><\/td><td>Medio nublado con lluvias pasajeras.<\/td><td>31-33<\/td><td>22-24<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warnings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A <strong>low pressure<\/strong> is being monitored near the southeastern US, with a 30% chance of becoming a cyclone in 48 hours and 60% in the next 7 days.
