When will the rain come?
The drop in temperatures, Fernández estimated, it will only arrive on sunday. “Sunday morning can be quite hot because relief will come gradually. That day we will have 31 or 32 degrees maximum, but we already started to have more widespread rains, with which the temperatures are going to go down, “he said.
