The Summer rain is causing all sort of tragedies here. On the other hand, lack of rain is causing a major drought in southern Brazil since last Winter.

As @BakaNeko pointed out, it’s not winter right now in the southern hemisphere.

This is just further evidence of Northern-hemispheric hegemony. We’re not down here hanging on by our toe-nails for fun you know. /s

Rains and floods are common in summer. Some years we have more severe rains, due to phenomena like La Niña. But it’s been a while since I’ve seen so many problems in several states at the same time.

On the other hand, people are expecting a heatwave in southern Brazil and neighbouring countries like Argentina and Paraguay.
