The level of the Rio Acre continues to rise in the Brazilian capital of Acre, measuring 10.49 meters as of the early hours of Tuesday, October 10. The river rose more than 44 centimeters on Monday alone, as it exceeded the alert level, prompting concerns for residents. Recent rain resulted in 19.80 mm of precipitation in the last 24 hours, contributing to the river's alarming levels and warranting attention from the local civil defense agency.

In comparison to last week’s measurements, the level of the river increased by 69 centimeters from 9.89 meters, recorded at the same time a week ago. This resurgence is disconcerting, particularly considering that on February 9, after nearly a month of the river being above the alert level, many families displaced due to flooding were just beginning to return home. At that time, 39 families, totaling 115 people and 26 animals, were sheltered in the Wildy Viana Exhibition Park during the incident.

Previously, the river exceeded the 10-meter level on February 13, after which it recorded a slight decrease later that day. The community is clearly on high alert, recalling recent experiences with flooding, stressing the necessity for preparedness plans to ensure the safety of residents should the river continue to rise further. This situation calls for ongoing monitoring and a proactive approach from governmental and non-governmental organizations to mitigate potential damages and support impacted families.
