Despite the negative fluctuation, the level still exceeds the transshipment quota, which is 14.00 meters, and remains well above the alert quota, set at 13.50 meters. In the last 24 hours, the accumulated rainfall was 16.20 millimeters, a factor that contributed to the increase observed throughout the day.
According to the municipal coordinator of Civil Defense, Lieutenant Colonel Cláudio Falcão, the situation continues to be monitored continuously. Teams remain alert, especially in the most vulnerable areas, and new preventive measures can be adopted if the level rises again.
Civil Defense reinforces the guidance for the population to only follow official bulletins and follow the recommendations of protection bodies.
