| Resumo: | The present work evaluates the relationship of precipitation, relative humidity, minimum and maximum air temperatures with the occurrence of hospitalizations for dengue in Rio Branco city / AC, during the period from 2008 to 2018. The meteorological data were obtained from the Database of Teaching and Research, belonging to the National Institute of Meteorology. On the other hand, the acquisition of epidemiological data have been gotten from the database of the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). From the Mann Kendall test, there was a significant decreasing trend in dengue cases. When it comes to cross-correlation, the only variable that has a statistical association with dengue was relative humidity, since throughout the year it has values ??that are favorable for vector proliferation and longevity. The results show that precipitation and air temperature variables can support specific activities to prevent and mitigate Aedes Aegypti.
