Se prevé un incremento en la intensidad y distribución de las precipitaciones en la región Litoral, con incidencia en zonas de cordillera occidental. Las mayores intensidades podrían estar acompañadas de tormentas aisladas y ráfagas de viento, principalmente en el norte, centro e interior del Litoral el día 21 de septiembre y la noche del 22 y madrugada del 23 de septiembre.

Entre los principales factores que favorecerán el evento previsto se encuentran el aporte de humedad proveniente del norte de la región en los niveles altos de la atmósfera; la convergencia de vientos en los niveles bajos, asociada al sistema de baja presión denominado «Vaguada Monzónica»; las elevadas temperaturas de la superficie del mar; y el desarrollo de la fase cálida del fenómeno ENSO, conocida como “El Niño”.
