Change in time at the weekend After an unstable Friday, the weekend brings a gradual change in the weather. On Saturday (13), the low pressure area moves further towards the ocean, making room for a cold and more stable air mass to enter. As a result, firm weather begins to predominate in most parts of Rio Grande do Sul, although the sky still has a variation of clouds. The sun appears between clouds in several regions, favoring periods of improvement. Only areas in the South and Costa Doce can still record drizzle or weak, isolated rain, without significant volumes. The highlight is the cold, which intensifies, especially in the early hours of the day. On Sunday (14), the scenario changes once and for all. Firm weather should take over practically the entire state, with the presence of a mass of cold air guaranteeing atmospheric stability. The day starts with low temperatures in all regions, with greater emphasis on Campanha, Sul, Serra and areas of higher altitude. Throughout the afternoon, the sun appears between few clouds, making the weather more pleasant, although still mild. There is no significant rain forecast, and the weather should favor outdoor activities. VIDEOS: Everything about RS
