On Friday, the 9th the sun prevails among few clouds mostly in the Midwest and makes the temperatures come rising both morning and afternoon. There is some variation of cloudiness in northern Mato Grosso and east of Goias, where it can rain in isolation.
 
The relative humidity starts to get lower in the Pantanal region, which favors the increase in the number of fires.
 
In the South, the cold dawn loses strength compared to the previous day, but follows the condition for occasional frosts between the Santa Catarina mountains and east of Parana in the early hours of the day.
 
Time is tight, dry, without condition for rain in any of the three states. The relative humidity begins to fall a little further inland in the afternoon, approaching critical levels particularly in the gaucho west.
 
The cooler soil can delay planting of the new summer season. “We will need at least another 10 days with temperatures above 30 degrees to the ground heat up and become suitable to receive the seeds,” said Desirée Brandt, meteorologist Somar.
