Anonymous Coward User ID: 24112183 Portugal 09/20/2012 06:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Posted on September 20, 2012 September 20, 2012 – PARAGUAY – A fierce storm packing 140-kilometer (87-mile) an hour winds tore across the heart of South America on Wednesday, killing five people in Paraguay and wreaking havoc in Argentina and Uruguay. The Roque Alonso suburb of the Paraguayan capital Asuncion was devastated by the storm and widespread looting was reported in its aftermath. Four police cadets died and 15 were injured when the roof of their dormitory collapsed, and a 16-year-old boy died at a shopping center when a water tank collapsed on him outside a pharmacy. “Roque Alonso has to be built all over again,” police commander Heriberto Marmol said. Dozens of injured people flooded Asuncion hospitals and traffic was gridlocked in parts of the city. A crowd of thousands braved torrential rain for a concert by the rock band Scorpions only to see the show cancelled. Nationwide, at least 5,000 homes were destroyed and more than 80 people injured in storm-related incidents, Aldo Saldivar of the national emergency response center said. The storm also blew the roof off homes and barns in Neembucu, south of the capital and knocked out power in the town of Encarnacion for many hours. The wind was less severe further south in Argentina and Uruguay, around 100 kilometers (62 mph) per hour, but strong gusts still ripped off roofs and toppled trees and power lines, plunging some regions into darkness. –Terra Daily [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 24112183 Portugal 09/20/2012 06:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Extreme Weather in Paraguay on Thursday, 20 September, 2012 at 03:01 (03:01 AM) UTC. Description A powerful storm killed five people and injured 81 in Paraguay as it blew across the southern cone of South America on Wednesday, ripping roofs off ramshackle homes and leaving thousands of people without shelter. No deaths were reported outside Paraguay, but power outages were widespread and many people had to be evacuated as rivers overran their banks and coastal areas flooded. Wind gusts reached above 100 kph (62 mph) and heavy rains raked Paraguay, southern Brazil, northern Argentina and Uruguay. Near Paraguay’s capital, Asuncion, four soldiers died and 14 were injured when their dormitory roof caved in, and a falling sign killed a teenage girl outside a shopping center in the suburb of Mariano Roque Alonso. Paraguay’s interior minister, Carmelo Caballero, said the national emergency office would donate materials so that people can rebuild. Meteorologist Eliana Klering in Brazil said the cold front caused heavy downpours and flooding, with winds that “reached 100 kilometers per hour and ripped tiles off roofs.” Uruguay’s government closed shopping malls and shut down its ports as a precaution, suspending ferry service to Argentina’s capital of Buenos Aires. The wind broke windows in several buildings in Uruguay’s capital and toppled about a hundred trees. Three of the country’s highways were cut off by flooding. The low-pressure system also sucked humidity from northwestern Argentina, where high winds and unseasonably hot temperatures combined to spark at least eight wildfires. [link to hisz.rsoe.hu] |
