Cemetery Structures Collapse Under Cloudy Skies in Thiesi; Sassari Witnesses Atmospheric Phenomena

Surprise Downpour Wreaks Havoc in Thiesi, Sardinia 🌧️💰🚙

Caught off guard by a sudden, heavy rainstorm that hit around 4 PM on May 30, the Meilogu region and nearby Thiesi town were drenched in a torrential deluge - measuring 43.6 mm in just an hour. 🌧️

The tribulation didn't end there. With the roaring river rushing down the roads, the once paved connection between Thiesi and Bessude now lies blocked and impassable. 🚙🛣️

Adding to the misery, the cemetery was inundated, a row of niches crumbled, and various parts of the town suffered damage. The streets, now transformed into raging torrents, submerged many basements and ground floors of homes. 🏠🌊

In some instances, the force of the water was unrelenting, causing small landslides and collapses in different parts of town. Two hapless drivers even found themselves battling the elemental fury, abandoning their vehicles and seeking refuge to prevent being swept away by the floodwaters. 🌊🚗

Mayor Gianfranco Soletta could hardly muster anything but repetition, cursing the devastation that lay before him, "It's a disaster... a disaster!" As he coordinated first-response efforts with the Civil Protection and firefighters, he vowed, "Now we'll do our best, then tomorrow we'll try to assess the damages." 🚒🚇

But there's some good news too—so far, it seems that no one has been injured in the flooding incidents, with no major difficulties reported at this point. 💪
