The severe flooding in southern Brazil has reached Argentina and Uruguay, with rivers overflowing their banks. The Uruguay River is wreaking havoc on both banks due to the rains in southern Brazil and the overflow of the Guaíba River. Up to 547 people, including 122 minors, were evacuated in Concordia due to the rise of the Uruguay River, according to the local authorities. The Uruguay River is expected to reach a depth of 14 meters in Concordia on Monday.
