Weather forecast in Uruguay : A stable and warm week, with above-average highs for the season. Along the coast, temperatures are expected to reach 24° to 26°, while in the center and north of the country, temperatures will climb to 28°. Saturday is expected to be a beach destination in Montevideo, with mostly clear skies and light winds.
The weather will remain dry and sunny in the coming hours. No rain is forecast for much of the country for most of the week, ensuring pleasant days for outdoor activities and, for those who can, a short getaway. However, it's a good idea to stay hydrated and avoid sun exposure during peak hours.
Uruguay weather forecast: unstable north winds Thursday and Friday
Towards Thursday night, the north of the country will enter an unstable phase. Isolated showers and increasing cloud cover are possible, with intermittent improvements. Unstable conditions continue in that region on Friday, while the rest of the country maintains high temperatures and a dry atmosphere. On coastal and northeastern routes, expect occasional reduced visibility due to brief showers.
For Montevideo and the south, Saturday is shaping up to offer very favorable conditions for outdoor activities. The weather forecast in Uruguay indicates a high of around 28°C in the capital, with a moderate breeze from the north and periods of clear skies. The warm weather will also be felt in Canelones, San José, and Colonia, where highs will range between 26°C and 28°C.
Uruguay weather forecast: Sunday with fast-moving storms
General deterioration is expected early Sunday morning, with occasionally strong storms. The storm's passage will be rapid and will affect much of the country, so basic precautions are recommended: check storm drains, secure loose items, and avoid driving in flood-prone areas during the storm. Following the storm, conditions will tend to improve from west to east, with a slight decrease in wind chill.
On a daily basis, the combination of heat and humidity can be overwhelming, especially on public transportation. If the bus is crowded, it helps to carry water and plan your journeys ahead of time. For those who work outdoors, scheduling work during off-peak hours reduces heat exhaustion; a break in the shade is worth a fortune. In homes and businesses, ventilating at night and closing during the day helps save money on your electricity bill.
The weather forecast for Uruguay for early next week projects a return to stability, with still high temperatures in the north and somewhat more moderate temperatures in the south. The short-term trend does not show any prolonged rainfall events, except for the brief periods already mentioned.
The weather forecast for Uruguay maintains northerly winds as the dominant wind for much of the period, favoring rising temperatures and a somewhat heavier feel in the afternoon. Along the coast, the sea will moderate the highs slightly, but the weather will remain warm with a good presence of sunshine. Along the coast and northeast, the afternoons will feel hotter due to low localized ventilation and sustained radiation.
In terms of health, it's recommended to hydrate frequently and avoid sun exposure between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., when the UV index tends to be high in spring. For those who use public transportation, planning their journeys reduces waiting in the sun; if the bus is crowded, carrying water and a hat helps. At home, ventilating at night and darkening rooms during the day helps maintain the temperature without skyrocketing electricity bills.
The weather forecast in Uruguay also reflects rural activity. Dry weather will facilitate minor harvests, fence maintenance, and field work, although the heat may shorten open-air work windows. In the north, showers expected between Thursday night and Friday could cause brief pauses in spraying or livestock movements.
Looking ahead to Sunday, the storms will move quickly. It is recommended to check drains, secure items on balconies and rooftops, and review official warnings before hitting the road. Following the event, the weather forecast in Uruguay indicates gradual improvement, with a slight decrease in wind chill and a return to stable conditions at the beginning of next week.
