Changes in Portugal's public data, ranked by what actually moved: legal thresholds crossed, series records, accelerations and deviations from the norm. Every item carries its comparison inside the sentence and links to the data behind it. No language model: arithmetic over official sources only.

2024 accounts: 11 of 307 municipalities exceed the ceiling (1.5 times three-year average current revenue). Furthest over it is Vila Real de Santo António, with €125.2 million. Fourteen sit in the municipal rescue fund.
No other changes in the data we watch today. Last change, in contracts: 17 September.
This brief gathered 5 candidates from BASE/IMPIC, DGAL and published the 2 highest-scoring. A fact that ran in an earlier brief only returns when its value changes; a standing fact repeats at most once a fortnight. The score weighs the type of change (threshold crossed > record > acceleration > movement > deviation > standing state), magnitude and freshness; a fact older than its source's publication cadence is ineligible, which is why a 2020 figure can never appear in a 2026 brief.
