Weather Forecast 0% open

Paraguay


What data is expected?

3-day forecasts of temperature, precipitation and wind. Forecasts have to be provided for several regions in the country. Short-term weather forecasts are relevant for the general public to plan activities, while also being reliable. See our methodology section for more information.

  • Temperature extremes
  • Temperature average
  • Wind speed
  • Wind direction
  • Precipitation Amount
  • Precipitation Probability
  • Forecast for current day and four following days

How open is the data?

5 days forecast is only available for Asunción and it hasn't wind information. Then there is 3 days forecast for departments without wind also (and very difficult to find and access: https://www.meteorologia.gov.py/mapa2.php).

The submission is correct. The given link (https://www.meteorologia.gov.py/mapa2.php) leads to written forecast reports for the current day +2 days. The forecasts are issued for 1 major city per region, and temperature, wind direction (no wind speed) and indication of precipitation (without telling the exact amount). There are data services offering to send 48 hour forecasts in written form. These have to be monthly paid for a fee of 320 US Dollars (see price list here: https://www.meteorologia.gov.py/adm/uploads/Tasas.pdf). Information is transmitted via phone, fax, or internet.
