Brazil's National Meteorological Institute (INMET) reported that the South American nation is on alert to heavy rains.
“In the central-north and east of Santa Catarina, and especially in Paraná, isolated storms are forecast in the afternoon, due to the presence of a moisture channel. In the extreme west of Rio Grande do Sul, storms can occur at the end of the day,” he said at INMET.
In this regard, he pointed out that strong winds could generate severe floods from the north of Amapá to the southwest of Rio Grande do Sul, according to a press release from Telesur.
“This area should give rise to a cyclone that will intensify, cross the state and move towards the ocean between Sunday night and Monday,” the agency said.
