This Saturday a strong storm broke out that affected a large part of the province. The Río Segundo department was no exception, and towns such as Pilar, Costa Sacate, Villa del Rosario, Los Chañaritos and Santiago Temple, among others, bore the brunt.

More news from the Río Segundo department

With a large number of fallen poles, uprooted trees, broken branches and sheets blown off, on Sunday the work of the authorities and the volunteer fire stations was arduous to try to return to normality as quickly as possible, clearing streets and restoring services.

A corn plantation destroyed by stone in the Río Segundo department.

In rural areas, producers bore the brunt.

Entire fields planted with soybeans and corn were literally “plowed” by the stones that had no mercy in the strips where this phenomenon was added to the rain and the wind. There are still no precise estimates of the affected rural area.
