Guaiba River Swelling Threatens Porto Alegre After Days of Heavy Rain

PORTO ALEGRE, BRAZIL - MAY 14: Aerial view as two people cross a flooded street of the city centre after days of heavy rains on May 14, 2024 in Porto Alegre, Brazil. After several days of heavy rain, Porto Alegre and many other municipalities in Rio Grande Do Sul are flooded due to the swelling of the rivers. Governor of the State, Eduardo Leite, issued an alert on the possible increase in the water level of Guaiba River that could elevate 20cm over the one reached last week which could be a historical register.
