The rains may be accompanied by locally strong thunderstorms. On Saturday (04.03), the strongest instabilities will occur in the north of the state, moving towards Santa Catarina and Paraná. On Sunday (05.03), the sky clears in the southwest of Rio Grande do Sul, while the instabilities continue in the east. Until Monday (06), volumes should approach 70 mm in some locations in the southwest of RS; pass 100 mm in the east of Santa Catarina and west of Paraná, these being the regions with the highest rainfall forecast for this weekend.
