The weather in the United States varies greatly, as we know, but this time it’s been particularly unusual. We’re talking about unsettled air in parts of California and Oregon, snow in Florida, and now, rain in Baja California, specifically in Tijuana. After weeks of mild, sunny weather, forecasts indicate that rain will return this week to this region. According to weather reports, precipitation could return starting Thursday, January 22nd, and continue through Friday, January 23rd.
This data helps predict the state of the atmosphere at a given time and location
It is important to heed weather forecasts and, therefore, the precautions issued by the relevant authorities. The goal is to prevent citizens from putting themselves at risk due to misinformation. Weather forecasts are based on observation and mathematical models. This data helps predict the state of the atmosphere at a given time and location. Specifically, for Thursday the 22nd, there is a 20% chance of rain, with possible intermittent showers from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Conditions will be mostly cloudy, with highs of 17 degrees Celsius and lows of 12 degrees Celsius. All of this data is obtained from records such as temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation, and wind.
Tijuana, specifically, due to its Pacific Ocean coastline and proximity to California, experiences cool summers and mild winters
As for temperatures, highs will range between 12 and 16 degrees Celsius. A 70% chance of rain is forecast for Friday the 23rd, with showers expected from the early morning hours and continuing until approximately 4:00 PM. It’s worth noting that the record low temperature in this area is -9.4 degrees Celsius and the record high is 48.2 degrees Celsius. It has snowed on five occasions (in 1967, 2007, 2008, 2014, and 2021), although low temperatures are rare in this region. Furthermore, Tijuana, specifically, due to its Pacific Ocean coastline and proximity to California, experiences cool summers and mild winters.
Tijuana is experiencing atypical weather conditions with temperatures reaching up to 27 degrees Celsius in the middle of winter
Let’s remember that rain is a fundamental factor for transportation in all its forms. Agriculture, tourism, disaster prevention, public health, and even military operations are directly affected by precipitation. Tijuana is experiencing atypical weather conditions, with temperatures reaching up to 27 degrees Celsius in the middle of winter, accompanied by strong, dry winds. Therefore, local authorities in Tijuana are closely monitoring atmospheric behavior, particularly given the possible arrival of the cold front we mentioned, which could alter the forecast for the rest of the week.
This marked temperature contrast can take many people by surprise, so it is recommended to take precautions
Temperatures are therefore an important issue, as the contrast between day and night is enormous. Highs can reach 26 degrees Celsius during the day, but at night temperatures can drop to 9 degrees. This marked temperature contrast can take many people by surprise, so it is recommended to take precautions against these changes. It’s also worth remembering that in California, from autumn to spring, the phenomenon known as the Santa Ana winds is common. This well-known phenomenon is even featured in Hollywood movies like “The Holiday.” It is characterized by strong, dry, and hot winds that blow from the mountains to the sea and can cause heat waves exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.
In summary, the weather this week could be quite variable. The most significant rainfall is expected on Friday, with the possibility of light rain in the city. Temperatures will also fluctuate, and a marine layer is anticipated, along with morning and evening fog, so extreme caution is advised on the roads.
