Tsunami in Brazil! Monstrous waves took dozens of cars into the ocean!

On November 11, a meteorological tsunami hit the coast of the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina.

Large waves reached the shore near the municipality of Laguna.

The sudden fury of the ocean frightened beachgoers and caused damage.

The sudden advance of the ocean hit cars parked on Cardoso beach.

Large waves dragged several cars into the ocean.

There were no reports of injuries.

Meteorological tsunamis are large waves that scientists are just beginning to better understand.

They are caused by disturbances in atmospheric pressure.

Storms in the open sea produce waves that move towards the coast and are amplified by the characteristics of the coastline.

Waves can reach heights of up to two meters.

Gabriel Medina takes a break from surfing after 'difficult time'

Three-time world surfing champion Gabriel Medina has withdrawn from the Billabong Pro Pipeline in Hawaii and says he will take a break from surfing.

"The past few months have been a difficult time for me personally and it has taken a toll," the Brazilian star wrote on Instagram.

"As such, I've decided to withdraw from the start of the 2022 WSL Championship Tour.

"I had every intention of competing for the full season, had made all the preparations medically (I took my COVID vaccination during my holidays) and mentally and physically, but I'm not in a place where I believe I can perform against the world's best surfers right now and I need to focus on my well-being.

"I don't know how long it will take, but I aim to return to the Championship Tour as soon as I am ready.

"I very much appreciate everyone's ongoing love and support. I'll be back when I am able."

World Surf League CEO Erik Logan said the organisation supported Medina's decision to take a break.

"The health and safety of our athletes is of the utmost importance, and we fully support Gabriel’s decision to prioritise his well-being,” Logan said.

"We want to put the world’s best surfers in front of our fans to start the season, but we certainly respect his decision."

Watch | Italo Ferreira with friends on a European tour | PART1

Last October, world and Olympic surfing champion Italo Ferreira made a childhood dream come true: traveling with his friends Jack Bafo and Marcelo Buxexa, who were also born and raised in Baía Formosa (RN). The trio's destination was Europe, and the adventure was unforgettable.

In Portugal, the boat was reinforced by another Italo friend, Marcos Casteluber. Surfing and lots of laughs, especially with Bafo, totally at ease during his first international trip, who came to face the formidable North Beach, in Nazaré.

The group also visited places like Barcelona, Spain and Austria, home of Red Bull.

Supermoon creates rare wave in the middle of the Brazilian jungle

The destructive wave has been dragging trunks and branches pulled from the banks of the river and travels for kilometers in the waters of the Amazon region of Maranhão. On Supermoon, the Pororoca phenomenon gains tremendous strength, producing waves with a face of more than 2 meters. This is because, at its closest moment to Earth, the Moon's influence on the tides increases dramatically.
