Storm in the capital
After the storm, Bucharest became “Little Venice”. Many roads and houses were submerged in water. Severe weather has brought traffic to a standstill in Romania’s capital.
– I tried to drive, but it was too deep and water poured into the engine – said one of the drivers.
– Strong winds broke branches and uprooted trees. A power pole fell and cars were damaged, Pro TV journalist Delia Birla said.
Firefighters carried out at least 150 interventions across the country. Hail carpets appeared on the streets of the town of Tropeta-Ternu Severin. There, strong winds tore off dozens of roofs, one of which fell onto several parked cars.
