HAVANA TIMES – Slightly warm days are forecast in the capital for next 7-days, with isolated rains especially in the afternoons. Easterly winds will predominate, with speeds between 6 and 12 mph, with stronger gusts along the north coast. The relative humidity will remain high throughout the week.

The high temperatures will oscillate between 27 and 31° C (81 and 88 F), and the lows between 19 and 21 ° C (66 and 70 F). The sea surface temperature will be 26° C (79 F).

Meteorological conditions:

A high pressure of 1013 mb prevails over the central Atlantic producing anticyclonic influence on the west of Cuba and the Gulf of Mexico, which currently imposes a weak flow from the southeast. A new cold front will approach the island this Friday, slightly increasing the probability of rain and increasing the intensity of the winds due to a surface pressure gradient.
