On the Caribbean coast, conditions remain unrestricted.\n\nThe authorities explained that a humid and unstable atmosphere persists, associated with the presence of a trough at various levels of the troposphere. Added to this are the effects of the southeast wind and daytime heating, conditions that will favor, during the afternoon and night, cloud increases accompanied by heavy to very heavy showers, thunderstorms, wind gusts and possible hailstorms.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
