Na terça-feira, 18 de novembro, o Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia emitiu um alerta laranja para Torres e a região metropolitana de Porto Alegre, convocando moradores a se prepararem para ventos de até 100 km/h e chuvas intensas. O alerta laranja — nível intermediário entre a vigilância e o perigo extremo — não é uma previsão abstrata, mas um chamado concreto à prudência coletiva. Quando a natureza anuncia sua força com tamanha precisão, cabe às comunidades e às instituições responderem à altura.
