The downpour began around noon and maintained its intensity for around three consecutive hours, as reported by the Fire Department. During the afternoon, the rain decreased in intensity, but reports indicate that, until 6:30 pm, the precipitation still persisted on a smaller scale.
Although only one incident was officially recorded, firefighters received several unofficial reports about roofing and other disturbances caused by the storm. Fortunately, there are no records of more serious incidents, according to local authorities.
Residents report that the episode brought moments of tension due to the strength of the winds and the volume of water accumulated in a short time. Even so, the community highlighted the rapid mobilization of the Fire Department to meet emergency demands and monitor the impacts caused by the bad weather.
