                         Estado. Mais de 16.500 pessoas foram atingidas e cerca de 60% dos

                         organized clusters of convective clouds, which often arrive at 
                         Southern Region of Brazil and produce a variety of hazards. This 
                         study evaluated hazards associated with CCM events in the Rio 
                         Grande do Sul (RS) State, the southernmost of Brazil, between 
                         October and December of 2003. The detection of CCM was done using 
                         ForTraCC application DSA/INPE. Data coming from Defesa Civil do RS 
                         (DCRS), the RS civil defense organization, and from the archives 
                         of Jornal Correio do Povo, a local newspaper, served as source 
                         material to evaluate the hazards on the CCM event occurring days. 
                         During the period, 22 CCM events were identified over the RS. 
                         Based on DCRS reports, 90 incidents were associated with CCM 
                         events: strong gales and storms (42), flash floods (21), stream 
                         overflows (14), hail and strong gales (5), hail storms (3), 
                         swamping (2), floods (2) and earth flows (1). These CCM events 
                         caused the death of eleven people, of which six were in RS and the 
                         five in San Tom{\'e}, on the Argentinean side of the boarder. 
                         More than 16,500 people were affected by hazards caused by CCM in 
                         the RS. Approximately 60% of the municipal districts affected 
                         requested emergency situation. On average, three to four events 
                         produce some type of hazard.",
