- The death toll from floods and mudslides triggered by torrential storms in southern Brazil climbed to 39 on Friday, officials said, as they warned of worse to come.
In one video posted online, a motorway bridge in Santa Maria, southern Brazil, can be seen buckling in front of people’s eyes amid high flood waters on Tuesday.
One man who is just about to step onto the bridge narrowly avoids falling in after stepping back just in time.
As the rain kept beating down on Friday, rescuers in boats and planes searched for scores of people reported missing among the ruins of collapsed homes, bridges and roads.
Rising water levels in the state of Rio Grande do Sul were straining dams and threatening the metropolis of Porto Alegre with “unprecedented” flooding, authorities warned.

Signs of the return of the one true God, Jesus

God is truly showing us Who’s in charge. We must turn to Him before it’s too late
I think nature is and its giving the call. But thats in response for our actions destroying our planet for the benefit of the richest 1%...
Amen 🙏🏾 ❤
Upravu ste
i think actually god has nothing to do with this but mother nature, lets say another entity lol
God has promised never to punish humankind with water. That is actually in the Bible. This is the result of what we've been doing to the environment. Entirely on us, not Him.

obrigado amigo
2024 is gonna be a hell of a year
DEWs....Floods. Fires. Earthquakes. On demand.
God bless everyone and the animals, devastating news.
Amém
Wow.. shocking!😯
Weather wars = no winners.
Sorry😢
Oh my gosh. Wow! Huge destruction. So terrible for everyone. 😢
No way 😮
There are bigger potholes here in the UK
Mainly in people's brain's
Something happening in our cosmos. Either the moon is drifting or we are drifting away. Or a massive gravitational force is at play
The biggest problem is that it doesn't stop raining.
its called el nino
I would wager it's got something to do with that "natural disasters being more common and causing more damage because of man-made climate change" thing scientists have been warning about for the past several decades.
No. It's humans who are destroying the earth every day and we are the recipients of disasters.
Keep the bridge on lead
It's the second time I see Guaíba spelled wrong in English media.
Guiaba sounds like Goiaba, the Portuguese word for Guava.
Like many rivers and lakes in Brazil, the word is of tupi-guarani origin... gua-ybe, meaning "bay of all waters" (had to search etymology... like 99% of brazilians, I don´t understand tupi-guarani)
It's pronounced like "gua-ih-bah". Stressed syllable being the "ih".
Motorway?
Absolutely NOT a motorway.
Motorways in Rio grande do Sul state are BR448 (6 lanes), BR290 (8 lanes), BR116 (4 lanes, becoming 6), BR386 (4 lanes), BR101 (4 lanes).
THIS was a motorway bridge

Forces of nature
Tremendous loss
❤❤
What about the constant cloud seeding?
It was not predicted, experts believe that the rain will last all day until the 15th of this month.
The biggest problem is that it doesn't stop raining.
Vivo nesta região e nunca houve nada parecido, dezenas de cidades estão isoladas sem acesso por estradas, rompimento de barragens com aumento histórico dos rios resultou em cidades inteiras submersas e o centro da capital Porto Alegre se encontra alagado como nunca antes 😢
Há registros de uma grande inundação em 1941, depois disso instalaram as centrais de bombeamento. Creio que em 1941 não tínhamos aquecimento global.... O clima é cíclico embora haja microregioes e microclima, o resto é muito blablabla e lacração sem fundamento.
Flood happens not only in Brazil but all over the world mostly when we live near river. what a pity.
😢😢😢
when mother nature and corruption collide.
Several months ago, some Brazilians destroyed a HAARP facility. Apparently, there are many more that exist all over the world.
Some say "people" has become the main export commodity after Lula being taken out of jail and back into the presidential office by his friends at the Federal Supreme Court.😊
what?
Tell us more about it?
thanks for reminding me it's global warming
The climatologist is a simpleton
1:22 bro was trying to his $200 tv lmfao
Here in Brazil these things are excessively expensive...
If it were 200 in our currency, it would be extremely cheap as well but that tv is over 1k in BRL.
😢😢 😢😢😢
So before global warming/climate change non of this ever happened 🤔
So what do u called what it is happening now if it is not a climate change or a global warming?can u give any term or definition for that?
@@remediosremoto6499 climate changes it always has shifted over thousands of years, warmer periods cooler etc. It’s Climate change.
El niño was last year, sea water temperature is already neutral here.
About global warming it´s just an excuse for everything to blame.
Wrong wrong wrong.
El Nino dissipated in April 2024 BUT it's effects were said, months ago, to still be felt until around July/August.
And March was the warmest March ever recorded, with global averages 1.8 degrees above normal.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🇹🇹
❤❤❤ i pray every day, for Mother Nature . Pay back time.
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸💜💜
Jesus is coming back, repent and believe in the gospel, Jesus is the almighty God, the only and true God eternally
Repent pray
Massive deforestation over decades does have side effects!
It is not about deforestation, but El Niño
@@v.santos7035Cloud Seeding, Bill Gates.
Isso é por causa de mudanças climáticas, que são geradas por POLUIÇÃO DE países ricos como, EUA, EUROPA E CHINA!!! Estamos pagando por causa desses países.
Deforestation of the amazon DID NOT cause the floods in Rio Grande do Sul. The amazon is 10.000 km away. Educate yourself about Brazil before spewing nonsense while hundreds are dying here
there is no el niño, what exists is a magnetic field shrinking in the region causing this.@@v.santos7035
Lula, instead of doing something, flew in a helicopter, lamenting the deaths and leaving for his luxury palace, congrats "president"
Ele enviou milhões de ajuda para região, fora a disponibilização de diversas forças da esfera federais para resgate de pessoas e auxílio a todos os municípios afetados. Realmente agradeça a ele!
Lula quer mais é que todos se fodam, pare de idolatrar esse político o mais rápido possível e conserve a saúde de seu cérebro.
@@jeniferstephane2456 millions... And this money to help this state?p
The U.S. will offer aid. And other countries. Russia, China, and North Korea will not.
В Тамбове задержали гражданина России, который по заданию украинских спецслужб готовил взрывы у зданий областного и арбитражного судов, сообщает ФСБ.
Мужчина прятал неизвестные предметы недалеко от вокзала, его заметили сотрудники РЖД, а охрана задержала. Саперы обнаружили на месте два взрывных устройства.
Украинский агент признался, что собирался совершить подрывы судов по заданию украинских спецслужб. Украина страна террорист и те кто поставляет ей оружие являются пособниками террористов!!!!
When Mother Nature does what it needs to do. We shouldn’t be fighting and killing one another. God could throw a stone and that will be that.. the dinosaurs got their stone. Let’s enjoy life.
Holy Moses All Mighty Force 2024 🙏
Thru God's Eyes Wrath 🙏
Jesus is coming back, repent and believe in the gospel. Jesus is the almighty God, believe that he died for your sins and rose again forever
Allah's Power
Only Jesus is God. The Almighty God 💪
Stay away from here, please. Go do promote your God somewhere else.
Eat some bacon.
And Brazil is being led like a copycat monkey. Some guys with painted mouths and makeup always referring to other countries. The Brazilian water system is unique in terms of the number and length of rivers, it is larger than all the continents, just look at the cartography, if we deal with river water we need to study this, building dams just with monetary thought, well a hydroelectric plant had to be turned off in the Amazon because of drought, so at that moment it was worth less than a battery, so dams can disappear in seconds. Other countries did what they did to solve their problem. With so many dams, Brazil is full of dead rivers, life does not flow.
