Forecast of intense heat

  • During the night, despite a slight drop to around 28°C, the thermal sensation is still high due to the characteristic mugginess of the desert region;
  • Previously in Los Angeles, where the climatic conditions were more favorable, the Brazilian national team did not face difficulties in carrying out their training sessions during the afternoon;
  • The first training session in Las Vegas is scheduled for this Wednesday, at 11 pm (Brasilia time). On Thursday, the team will have their last training session in the city, also scheduled for 11 pm (Brasilia time).
