Cyclone‑bomba threatens southern Brazil with strong winds and rain

The Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia (INMET) is monitoring a low‑pressure system that could intensify into an extratropical “ciclone‑bomba” affecting the southern region of Brazil and neighboring Argentina and Uruguay between 4 and 8 August. The system is expected to generate a cold front that will lower temperatures to 3‑5 °C in Rio Grande do Sul and Paraná, while producing thunderstorms, hail and heavy rain in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina. Forecasts call for wind gusts that may exceed 100 km/h over the Atlantic Ocean and more than 60 km/h along the coastal areas of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, with severe vendavais (60‑100 km/h) also warned for the South, Southeast and Central‑West, including Mato Grosso do Sul. In São Paulo, the approaching cold front is expected to bring rain showers and wind gusts up to 50 km/h on 8‑9 August, posing a risk of fallen branches, roof damage and power‑line outages. Authorities have issued alerts for storms, strong winds and possible hail across the affected states.
