This is the night. Brazil face Scotland at 7 pm in the group decider, with top spot in Group C on the line — and Neymar back in the squad. Bundle up — it is cold. At a chilly 14°C with rain almost certain, today is the low point of the cold snap, so a warm bar is the place for the football. The Bovespa is climbing. It rose for a second day on Tuesday to above 171,000, even as the central bank’s minutes struck
a firm tone on rates. Relief is coming. The cold eases from Friday into a milder, brighter weekend, so today’s chill is the worst of it. Weather & What to Wear FOUR-DAY OUTLOOK This is the cold low point. Today is chilly and grey at 14°C, with rain all but certain at an 84% chance, so a proper coat, an umbrella and warm layers are essential if you are heading out. It is the kind of raw, wet São Paulo winter day best spent indoors,
moving between warm rooms rather than braving the weather for long. Keep something waterproof to hand, as the rain looks set to linger through the day and into the evening. Better news is on the way. Thursday stays cold but drier, and from Friday the temperature climbs back toward a milder, brighter weekend near 22°C, so today’s chill is the worst of the spell before it lifts.
