Santa Catarina state Gov. Luiz Henrique da Silveira told Globo television that with 14 other people missing, “that death toll, sadly, is going to pass 50.”

Heavy rains that started on Friday have left some towns 80 percent under water, the governor said. Roads were blocked to four towns where people had no electricity. Federal officials offered cargo planes to help fly supplies to devastated regions.

Rescue efforts were focusing on the Itajai River valley, where waters were 30 feet above normal.

The count of deaths rose from 20 that civil defense officials had reported on Sunday.

Officials also said a landslide ruptured a major gas line from Bolivia, cutting off supplies to the states of Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.

Another South American nation, Colombia, also struggled with flooding on Monday as civil defense officials reported that the swollen El Salado river had killed at least six people and left six others missing in the Cauca region.  http://news.aol.com/article/floods-landslides-kill-dozens-in-brazil/258998
