Meteorologist Lizandro Jacóbsen points out that even municipalities that are usually warmer recorded low temperatures this Wednesday (24).
"We had the record for the lowest temperature of the year in many municipalities in the west, southwest, part of the center-south, and also in some cities in the northwest of Paraná. But the cooling reached all regions; even in the eastern and northern portions, the temperature dropped below 10°C on the thermometers".
According to him, throughout the day the weather remains stable, with no forecast of rain. In the northern pioneer area and in some municipalities of the Campos Gerais, in the border area with São Paulo and between the Serra do Mar and the coast, the sky should be cloudy in the morning. However, the sun will appear in the afternoon. See the weather forecast by region below.
"Prepare for the cold during the Brazil game, as temperatures will drop sharply starting at nightfall", he emphasizes.

On Saturday (27), the return of rain is expected, starting in the northwest sector and subsequently advancing to the other regions of Paraná throughout the day.
