Isolated rains that have continually reached the top sugarcane and coffee producing regions in Brazil may intensify and would spread to more areas in the next five to ten days with a new cold front coming to the Southeastern part of the country, according to a forecast of the Reuters Weather Dashboard.
 
The rains would be helpful, but would not be enough to recover all losses suffered last year. Analysts expect that both crops will have a modest production increase compared to last year. The rains will affect mostly the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais. Since January, precipitations are about 30% of the historic average in the region.
 
The Reuters Weather Dashboard project that rains will intensify in the next weekend with a new cold front and a gradual fall of precipitation throughout next week. A second cold front will last more days starting March 15 or 16.
 
The Commodity Weather Group in the US has forecast that rains will happen more often in the next weekend in coffee areas in São Paulo, going further to the south of Minas Gerais, where it would lose strength throughout next week.

The harvest in major sugarcane and coffee crops in Brazil in 2015 will start soon, between April and May.
