On Saturday afternoon, substantial rainfall impacted Bauru, São Paulo, particularly in the northern region, prompting the city’s emergency services to mobilize for cleanup and maintenance efforts. The heavy downpours resulted in noticeable flooding, especially along Avenida Nações Unidas Norte and near the Quinta da Bela Olinda lagoon, causing mud accumulation on roads and public areas. City officials reported that despite the severe weather, no injuries were reported among residents.

The local government, through the Municipal Development and Urban and Rural Company (Emdurb), dispatched the Traffic Operations Group (GOT) to manage the traffic flow on major roads affected by the flooding, ensuring safety for drivers navigating through waterlogged areas. Cleanup teams are on standby, awaiting improved weather conditions to commence the removal of mud and debris from the streets to restore normalcy in the region. The efficient response illustrates the city’s preparedness to handle severe weather incidents.

In the Vila São Paulo neighborhood, the Civil Defense responded to a flooding incident within a residential property. After an inspection, authorities determined that the home was to be partially closed off to prevent any potential hazards, although no people were injured or displaced from their homes. The overall response from emergency services highlights the effective coordination among various city departments in addressing natural disasters, aiding in community recovery and safety.
