As per reports, the National Disaster Prevention and Response Service (SENAPRED) has issued updated weather forecasts for Santiago and the Biobío Region, predicting severe storms, heavy rainfall, and strong winds starting from Tuesday (11 June). These adverse weather conditions are expected to cause significant disruptions, including flooding, power outages, and road closures.
