According to the National Institute of Meteorology (Inmet), the North, Northeast, Central-West and part of the Southeast regions are under alert this Wednesday (21). With the exception of the south of the country, the other areas are expected to record intense rain throughout the day due to the displacement of a convergence zone in the South Atlantic.
The states of Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, north of Rio de Janeiro, central-west Bahia, Goiás, Mato Grosso, Rondônia and part of Amazonas are under the most intense danger alert on the Inmet map. In this range, there is a possibility of rainfall reaching at least 50mm per day until Sunday.
For this Wednesday, in the north of Rio de Janeiro, Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais and the region of Rio Verde (Goiás), the volume of rain could reach 100 millimeters (mm). This amount of rain can cause landslides, flooding and river overflows.
Inmet also predicts rainfall that should exceed 50mm in the range that goes from Rio Grande do Norte to São Luís and also in Amapá. Only the South Region is excluded from any alert from the Institute.
