He type of weather that there is in a certain region is determined by various factors among which the altitude, the latitude, the orientation of the relief, the distance to the sea and the sea currents and gives guidelines to the so-called “weather weather” which in turn is supported by other elements such as the temperature, pressure, wind, humidity and precipitation to delineate atmospheric conditions in a short-term locality.

To classify the climate, the system developed by Wladimir Köppen is generally used, although there is also the Thornthwaite system, the latter which also takes into account biological diversity and the effects of climate change on it. Others, such as Bergeron and Spacial Synoptic, are interested in the origin of the air masses that define the climate of a region.

Due to climate change, currently the planet is in a process of redistribution in which any change, however small, in the average annual temperature leads to changes in habitats and their conditions.

In this context, we leave you here the weather forecast for Bogotá.

During the day temperature will reach a maximum of 18 degrees, rain forecast it will be 57%, with 89% cloudiness, while the wind gusts will be 26 kilometers per hour.

As for ultraviolet rays, they should reach a level of up to 7.

For the night, temperature will reach 8 degrees, while the probability of precipitation It will be 60%, with 96% cloudiness, while wind gusts will reach 20 kilometers per hour during the day.

What’s the weather like in Bogotá?

Being located in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia, that is to say in the Andean zone of the country, the Colombian capital has a mainly cold and dry climate.

He Institute of Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies (IDEAM) recalls that the city has a mean temperature 13.1 degrees Celsius.

As the day progresses, the Maximum temperature it fluctuates between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius; while at night the low temperature decreases between 8 and 10 degrees Celsius.

However, at the start of the year, temperatures can drop to minus 5 degrees Celsius.

Bogota scored two rainy seasons: from March to June and from September to December, April being the rainiest month. In these times, everything from torrential rains to hail and electric shocks occurs.

The weather in Colombia is very variedhe the climate is affected due to its geographical complexity just like the coasts of the Caribbean Sea in the north, the current of the Pacific Ocean, as well as the mountain ranges that cross it from the center from north to south.

According to IDEAM there are at least four types of weather in the country: tropical high mountain, dry, temperate and cold.

In the case of tropical climatesfour subtypes are identified: rainy or equatorial jungle, rainy or monsoon forest, dry winter savannah and dry summer savannah.

He tropical rainforest or equatorial It covers areas such as the central and northern Amazon, the entire Pacific region, parts of Antioquia, western Santander, Boyacá and Cundinamarca, the Catatumbo region and the foothills of the Amazon. During this time he tropical rainforest or monsoon it reaches the foothills of the plains and the extreme south of the Caribbean region.

There savannah with dry winter includes most of the Caribbean and Orinoco region, as well as the lower sectors of Santander and Antioquia. In reference to savannah with dry summer. It adds the inter-Andean valleys of Tolima, Huila, Valle, Cauca and Nariño.

For him dry climatein Colombia on very hot arid or desert and very hot semi-arid or steppe. The first is perceived in the upper part of the Guajira and the second in the middle and lower zone of the same department plus sectors of the Caribbean coast.

He mild climate it is felt in the middle and lower areas of the three mountain ranges of the Colombian country; During this time he high mountain coldas the name suggests, in the upper levels of the three mountain ranges.
