Thunderstorms are expected to begin in the followingnoon of Sunday, October 29 and extend into the early hours of Monday, October 30. This weather event raises concerns for the safety of residents in these regions.
Preparation and Precautions
Given this warning, it is essential that residents of O’Higgins, Maule and Ñuble take additional precautions to ensure their safety and that of their properties. It is recommended to avoid outdoor activities during the hours of greatest risk of thunderstorms and secure objects that may be displaced by strong winds.
