Students taking the second day of the Enem exam this Sunday (16th) may face major difficulties in some parts of the country as heavy rainstorms, including hail, are forecast.
The places where it is most difficult for participants to reach testing centers are in the southern region of Mato Grosso do Sul, parts of São Paulo, Amazonas, Roraima, Acre and Rondônia.
Inmet (National Meteorological Institute) issued an emergency warning on Friday (14th) this week, stating that the southern and southern parts of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul are experiencing severe storms and are extremely dangerous. The institute predicts rain of more than 60mm per hour, or more than 100mm per day, and winds of more than 100km/h and hail in these locations.
Therefore, there are significant risks such as building damage, power outages, plantation damage, fallen trees, flooding, and road traffic disruption, which may disrupt student movement. Therefore, it is important to leave home early to avoid being late.
It is important to know that if you experience a logistical problem during the exam, such as a power outage, or if you contract an infectious disease in the week before the exam, you can only reapply for the exam on another day.
For the states of Mato Grosso do Sul, Roraima, Amazonas, Acre, Rondônia and western Mato Grosso, as well as the rest of the south and west of São Paulo, the Inmet orange danger warning also applies to rain of 30-60 mm per hour or 50-100 mm per day, strong winds of 60 to 100 km per hour, and hail, with similar risks. storm.
South of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro, and the rest of São Paulo and Mato Grosso, the warning is in yellow, with rainfall of 20 to 30 mm per hour, or up to 50 mm per day, and strong winds of 40 to 60 km/h possible.
“A new very heavy rain system will form in the south of Brazil. The greatest amount of rain will be concentrated in the three southern states. However, moderate to heavy rain will also fall in Mato Grosso do Sul and parts of São Paulo. Therefore, regions further south of São Paulo may experience slightly stronger storms, and the eastern part of São Paulo will also experience very wet conditions,” says Climatempo meteorologist Nadiara Pereira.
She says a cold front is trending along the southeast coast early next week, but the conditions ahead of this front could create significant instability this Sunday. As a result, large parts of São Paulo state are under threat of rain showers.
The eastern part of the country, which includes the entire Northeast and most of the states of Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Goiás, Tocantins, Amapá and Pará, is advantageous for students due to its sunny, sunny, low humidity and high temperatures.
