- The attached video captures raw aftermath footage, showing overturned vehicles, flattened homes and businesses, scattered debris under stormy skies, and distraught residents narrating in Portuguese about a market "flying away" and sudden car impacts amid screams for help.
- While tornadoes occur sporadically in southern Brazil due to frontal systems, this EF2-level event's urban devastation is rare, highlighting vulnerabilities in underprepared rural areas; a 2023 study in Weather and Climate Extremes notes increasing severe convective storms in subtropical South America linked to warmer ocean temperatures.
