Storm ruins structure for show and Gustavo Mioto reacts after cancellation: 'Scary'

Singer Gustavo Mioto, attraction this Saturday (7) at the Feira das Nações de Santa Bárbara d'Oeste, took to social media to speak to fans after the cancellation of the performance due to the storm that hit the city in the interior of São Paulo.

The artist said that the stage structure and dressing rooms were compromised by the heavy rain and reacted to the damage that occurred throughout the city and mobilized city hall teams.

"I received the videos here, scary. Today it really won't be possible to do the show there with you and I feel sorry for all the people who at that moment lost the roof of their house, so there was no power in the city due to the storm and so on", he said.

In a statement, the City Hall informed that due to the impacts of the extreme weather event, the Feira das Nações was suspended. Singer Dilsinho would perform this Sunday (8).

The structure of the event suffered damage and the administration's decision aims to focus the efforts of municipal teams on responding to incidents and recovering the city.

The singer completed the message by saying that he hopes no one was hurt and that he hopes to see the city's public again soon.

"So today, unfortunately it won't work, God willing, we'll have our meeting very soon. I hope no one got hurt, at least on the team, everyone from the show there, no one got hurt so far that I found out about," he said.

Damage

Among the regions most affected by the storm in Santa Bárbara d'Oeste are Praça Central, Avenida Tiradentes, Avenida Corifeu de Azevedo Marques, Parque dos Ipês and neighborhoods such as Sartori, Jardim Mariana and São Francisco. In at least three incidents, trees fell on vehicles.

In the early evening, the Department of Water and Sewage (DAE) reported that the power outage caused by the storm hit the Represinha intake system and the Water Treatment Stations (ETAs), interrupting the pumping systems.

According to the municipality, the situation could compromise the water supply in different regions of the municipality. DAE and CPFL teams worked to restore power and normalize system operation.
