Many people were impressed yesterday with the news published yesterday by MetSul that Argentina on Thursday had half a meter of snow and 44ºC of heat on the same day between the south and the north of the country. Thousands of kilometers separate the south and north of Argentina and the great contrast, although extreme, is not unusual. And then, Rio Grande do Sul, which has its South and North separated by a few hundred kilometers?

The temperature difference between the south and southwest of Rio Grande do Sul towards the north and northwest of the state on Friday afternoon is absurdly high and out of the ordinary, even by gaucho standards. The temperature at 2pm in Livramento, on the border with Uruguay, was 12.4ºC cold and less thermal sensation due to the wind. In Santa Rosa, in the Northwest, at the same time it was 39.2ºC. A difference of almost 27ºC with the border on a winter day and the Northwest on a very hot summer day.
A cold front is advancing through Rio Grande do Sul and was responsible for lowering the temperature. It will cool off in the cities of the North and Northwest of Rio Grande do Sul under intense heat, but in the vast majority of them only with wind that will rotate towards the South with gusts and without rain.
