Severe precipitation, snowstorm, and freezing cold wave are expected in the northern and central regions of Argentina's Santa Cruz province between 16-18 July. The interaction of a cold front coming from the Pacific Ocean with a low-pressure system in the Atlantic will cause weather conditions to rapidly deteriorate in the region.
While 20-30 mm of precipitation is forecasted in the north of the province, heavy snowfall will be seen in the elevated and mountainous parts of the region. The cold air mass will cause the lowest temperatures of the year in the region on Saturday, 18 July, with thermometers dropping to minus 25 degrees Celsius in mountainous areas.
Authorities warned that transportation may be disrupted on many routes, especially the national RN 40 and RN 3 highways, due to reduced visibility, icing, and blizzards. Security forces advised drivers not to travel unless necessary, to check road conditions before traveling, and to carry winter tire chains.
