The state of Sergipe in Brazil has renewed its alert for heavy rain in the southern region, with the warning now extending until 11:59 PM next Friday. This announcement was made by the State Secretariat of the Environment, Sustainability, and Climate Actions (Semac), highlighting the potential risks associated with upcoming weather conditions. The forecast suggests that the region may experience strong winds, thunderstorms, and significant rainfall accumulation, especially during this period.

In contrast to the expected heavy rains in the south, the other regions of Sergipe are experiencing typical summer weather patterns, characterized by high temperatures, variable cloudiness, and light rain at the beginning of the week. From Wednesday onward, moderate rain is anticipated, accompanied by thunder and lightning in the southern region. Meteorologists caution that rainfall accumulation could exceed 50 mm per day until the end of the week, thus increasing the risk of flooding and other weather-related hazards.

The implications of such weather patterns are significant for the local population, particularly in vulnerable areas that may face challenges related to flooding and infrastructure strain. Authorities are advising residents to stay informed of weather updates and to take precautions to ensure their safety as the stormy weather unfolds across the southern part of the state.
