The Institute of Meteorology reported significant accumulated rainfall last Friday in the western and central region, due to numerous downpours, showers and thunderstorms, which became heavy and intense in some localities such as Havana.
These rains were related to a pre-frontal activity, which developed rapidly ahead of a cold front, and which remained over the Gulf of Mexico, together with favorable conditions in the lower and middle levels of the troposphere.
