The day starts with clear skies, bringing temperatures around 26°C. By the afternoon, temperatures are expected to peak at 28°C. Despite this comfortable start, conditions will rapidly shift, leading to expectations of isolated rain beginning early and intensifying as the day progresses.
Current weather data indicates humidity levels are high at 77%, which can feel quite muggy for residents and visitors alike. The wind is light, blowing from the southeast at about 4.46 km/h, contributing to the warm, sticky feeling common before storms.
The forecast predicts up to 100% chance of rain throughout the day, with expected accumulations of nearly 16.71 mm. With the high humidity and increased cloud cover, residents are advised to keep umbrellas handy, as the rain is predicted to particularly increase during the evening hours.
According to Elaine Sanoli of Correio, "The forecast indicates isolated rain throughout the day with intensification at night," highlighting the need for caution among those planning outdoor activities.
Temperature fluctuations will range from daytime highs of 28°C, cooling down to lows around 25°C, maintaining relatively stable conditions typical for Salvador this time of year. On days like this, high humidity can exacerbate the heat, making it feel warmer than it actually is.
The conditions aren’t expected to improve immediately. The following day, February 26, 2025, the weather is predicted to remain moist with temperatures between 24°C and 32°C. Rain is projected as well, promising to keep the wet weather pattern firmly established.
Further along, forecasts show continuing rain through the Carnival festivities, with predictions for the days leading to Ash Wednesday, March 5. This period is traditionally wet, with temperatures projected to hover between 25°C and 30°C, accompanied by thunderstorms and occasional sunshine.
