O furtună puternică a lovit nordul Germaniei; Vântul are forța unui uragan // FOTO

Celebra piață de pește din Hamburg a fost inundată, deoarece nivelul râului Elba a crescut cu 5,2 metri peste cel normal.

Meteorologii germani au avertizat că vântul va avea forță de uragan în nord și rafalele vor atinge aproape 100 de kilometri pe oră, scrie Digi24.

Pompierii din Hamburg au răspuns la 450 de apeluri de urgență în noaptea dintre sâmbătă și duminică.

Mai multe porțiuni de cale ferată și drumuri au fost blocate de copacii căzuți.

Doi bărbați au fost salvați după ce o șalupă a rămas blocată sub un pod din nordul orașului, au anunțat serviciile de urgență într-un comunicat.

Mai multe comunități din apropierea orașului Wismar, la est de Hamburg, au rămas fără curent electric. Operatorul feroviar Deutsche Bahn a fost nevoit să suspende circulația pe mai multe linii în nord.
