Severe storms recently struck the Colombian Caribbean region, resulting in flooding and hail in Barranquilla and Cartagena, while the area simultaneously faced record-high temperatures reaching up to 40 degrees Celsius driven by an acute El Niño phenomenon.

The extreme weather conditions also brought high waves of up to 2.7 meters and strong gusts of wind across the central basin of the Caribbean Sea. These combined meteorological events elevated safety precautions for both artisanal and industrial navigation during the storms.
