Description
Hundreds of people gather at night on Rio de Janeiro's iconic Ipanema beach as a heat wave continues to hit the Brazilian city. "It's all about finding a cooler place, because the heat in Rio is getting more intense every year," says 43-year-old Janaina Barbosa da Silva, perched on the sand with her family.
Summer is in full swing in Brazil, with temperatures regularly exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, or about 104 degrees Fahrenheit. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
