Intense rains in Paraná raise water volume to six times normal
The flow of the Iguaçu Falls in Foz do Iguaçu surpassed 10 million liters of water per second in the early hours of Saturday, September 12, reaching a volume six times higher than the usual level. The increase was caused by heavy precipitation in the state.
The peak flow was recorded at 2 a.m. on Saturday, September 12, 2026, according to G1.
The extraordinary volume results from the intense rains that hit Paraná in the preceding days, raising the water flow in the Iguaçu River and, consequently, at the Falls.
