Another difficult night was the one that passed, with stormy winds “sweeping” the island throughout.
From yesterday afternoon, Monday, November 29, strong southwesterly winds showed their teeth and as time passed, their intensity increased.
Towards midnight and in the early morning hours, gusts of wind that reached even 9 Beaufort swept away what they found in their “path”, while at times the strong winds were accompanied by heavy rain, fortunately short.
All kinds of constructions, awnings, roofs, crops, trees, were “swept” by the strong winds and were carried away tens of meters away.
The photos of the inhabitants of the island, users of social media which describe the degree of difficulty of last night are typical.
In the meantime, due to the unfavorable weather conditions, the morning itineraries to and from Kyllini did not take place, while those who wish to travel would be advised to contact Levante Ferries first.
Huge waves
As Dimitri Kladis writes on his social media page.. “Waves of 5-6 meters “sweep” Roxa, at the end of bad weather (imagine what was happening at night!)
THE PROBLEMS
Specifically, in Mouzaki (Bonafé location), in Keri and in Ampelokipi, trees fell, due to the strong winds with the services rushing directly to the points to clean and remove them from the roads.
Also, a waterspout was captured in the area of Alykes, by Dionysios Pouliezos.
