Abstract

In this article, statistical characteristics such as gusts, persistence and the conditioned probabilities of days with the Intense Cold Condition in Havana are analyzed. The bioclimatic indicator used is generated from thermal sensations at contrasting times of the day (07:00 and 13:00 h), depending on the presence or absence of wind. The climatic data belong to the meteorological stations of Casablanca and Santiago de las Vegas, in the period 1981–2018. Through the study, it was possible to obtain additional information on the behavior and manifestations of the Intense Cold Condition in the province of Havana, laying the foundations for later extending its use to the entire country. The persistence values of the phenomenon are lower as the gusts increase, showing that these events are generally limited to periods of a few days.
