This weekend the weather has been quite unusual: Cold mornings and hot afternoons. Friday the temperature reached 29º C | 84º F , the hottest aftenoon of this season, and today the thermometers apparently had the same measuring.
Of course, many people went to the beaches to enjoy this hot winter day. Some even entered the sea that wasn’t too cold.
I didn’t hesitate and went for a beach walk up to Praia do Forte, stoping at one of the local restaurants. I took a table in the sand and spent this lovely afternoon sipping a cold beer, and also having some seafood snacks.
What could explain such conditions is the presence of a dry air mass parked over the region that blocks any attempt of cold fronts from entering. But surely we could guess that it could be a global warming side effect. We enjoy without thinking that maybe winter will never be the same.
