Water approaches critical flood level at the border
The level of the Paraná River rose and the water is now less than 1 meter from the first flooding point in Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, where the historic average flow is about 1,500 m³/s; values above 3,000 m³/s are considered very high. Heavy rains in the border region are changing the landscape and local routine.
The river’s rise is the result of intense precipitation hitting the border region among Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. With the water near the critical limit, authorities are maintaining a flood alert for the Paraguayan city.
The rains continue to alter weather conditions and affect the daily lives of residents in the border area.
