Severe weather events continue to impact several Latin American countries. In Mexico, heavy rainfall in Ciudad Juárez previously affected approximately 700 homes and 400 neighborhoods, prompting requests for emergency declarations. In Veracruz, a coastal trough and low-pressure center continue to drive significant rainfall, particularly in mountainous basins. New warnings have also been issued for Ahumada regarding strong storms and wind gusts that may extend toward Ciudad Juárez.

In Argentina, meteorological instability persists. While Zonda winds previously fueled wildfires in Rawson, recent shifts in weather patterns are bringing rain and storms to the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA) and Entre Ríos. In Neuquén, heavy rains have already triggered a landslide on Cerro Macal near Lake Nahuel Huapi. A cyclogenesis process is expected to bring further storms, wind gusts, and temperature drops to the Litoral, Pampean, and central regions.

In Chile, meteorologists have issued warnings for the Metropolitan Region, predicting intense electrical storms caused by atmospheric instability and moisture influx from Argentina.

In Ecuador, the National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (Inamhi) maintains weather alerts for provinces including Esmeraldas, Manabí, and Guayas, warning of potential river rises and landslides. Heavy rainfall is forecast through Monday, particularly in coastal and Amazonian provinces, influenced by El Niño.

In El Salvador, the influence of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and a localized low-pressure system continues to drive heavy rain and electrical activity. In Panama, Sinaproc has issued a prevention notice due to tropical wave N. 48, with heavy rainfall predicted for mountainous areas. In Colombia, the city of Montería remains under monitoring as two tropical waves contribute to persistent rainfall and instability.
