Rescuers in southeastern Brazil scrambled yesterday to find survivors among dozens of people still missing after record rainfalls caused flooding and mudslides that killed at least 44 people over the weekend. 

Some 680mm – more than double the expected monthly amount – fell in 24 hours around the popular beach city of Sao Sebastiao, some 200km southeast of Sao Paulo.
