Unexpected Spring Drizzle Returns to Lima

Warmer coastal waters have increased isolated garúa and officials warn additional light drizzle is likely in the coming days.

Intensa llovizna en Lima hoy, 1 de octubre: distritos afectados y reporte del Senamhi
¿PRIMAVERA CON LLUVIA EN LIMA? Senamhi explica por qué siguen las LLOVIZNAS y advierte que PODRÍAN REPETIRSE
La garúa se presenta desde la tarde en distintos sectores de la capital, mientras el Senamhi había advertido sobre precipitaciones de diversa intensidad en varias regiones.

Overview

  • SENAMHI confirmed late Thursday that renewed drizzle fell across many Lima districts after forecasts warned of increased lloviznas for Sept. 29–30.
  • Meteorologist Janet Huamán said the recent episodes were anticipated in SENAMHI advisories and that measured accumulations exceeded 2 millimeters in parts of southern Lima.
  • Local networks and ASISMET reported garúa in a wide range of districts, including Villa María del Triunfo, Villa El Salvador, San Juan de Miraflores, Santiago de Surco, Ancón, Comas, Ventanilla and San Martín de Porres.
  • Residents raised alarms about water pooling and disruption on major roads and expressways even though total rainfall was small, with authorities urging vigilance for localized flooding on busy avenues.
  • The event reflects Lima’s transitional spring pattern where a warmer sea can boost coastal humidity and produce isolated drizzle that may continue sporadically until sea temperatures fall.
