Curitiba records rainy weather with temperatures between 13°C and 20°C this Monday, October 12, 2026. The presence of a cold front brings the possibility of storms in the afternoon and evening, with precipitation amounts between 3 mm and 20 mm.

Rainy weather with high humidity

The day begins with fog and overcast skies. Relative humidity reaches 99%, contributing to a muggy feel despite relatively mild temperatures. Easterly winds blow at 9.32 km/h, with gusts that could reach up to 24.73 km/h.

Cold front causes temperatures to drop

The passage of the cold front pushes the minimum temperature down to 13°C, and the maximum could reach 23°C before dropping throughout the day. The temperature drop is more noticeable at night, requiring heavier outerwear for those spending time outdoors.

Storm risk and traffic impact

Rain is virtually certain, with a risk of storms in the afternoon and evening. Wet roads may make driving more hazardous, especially along major roadways. Drivers should exercise extra caution and avoid areas with large trees, which could be impacted by strong wind gusts.

Health and humidity precautions

Damp weather can worsen symptoms of asthma, rhinitis, and other respiratory sensitivities. Children and the elderly should bundle up against the cold with appropriate clothing. Standing water left after the rain should be cleared away to prevent the proliferation of the dengue mosquito.

Outlook for the coming days

The trend for the coming days in Curitiba points to colder weather following the passage of the front, with conditions potentially stabilizing over the course of the week.
