Overview
- An official advisory calls for coastal winds on Sunday and Monday affecting Áncash, Callao, Ica, La Libertad, Lambayeque and Lima.
- Projected speeds include about 32 km/h in the north and 34 km/h in the central coast on Sunday, with Ica up to 38 km/h and near 35 km/h on Monday while the southern coast reaches around 22 km/h.
- The winds may lift dust and sand and reduce horizontal visibility, with low clouds, drizzle, mist and fog likely near the shoreline during early hours.
- Media reports differ on the alert level—RPP cites orange and Gestión reports yellow—so the public is urged to follow Senamhi’s official channels for updates and guidance.
- Senamhi specialists attribute the wind uptick to the South Pacific Anticyclone, and Ica recently saw stronger gusts near 50 km/h in Pisco earlier this week.
