Never so invoked, it has arrived bringing inconvenience and damage. The rain has fallen like it hasn't happened in a long time in Sardinia, with rainfall data unthinkable until two days ago. The gusts of wind have caused problems, as well as the storm surges. Side effects of the long-awaited water.
In Ogliastra
The north-east and south-east winds have wiped out the Cardedu beach. The scars of Museddu are the heaviest legacy of the last few days of bad weather in Ogliastra where the rains have raised the levels of the artificial reservoirs, Bau Muggeris and Santa Lucia . This last dam is monitored for possible water releases, but until yesterday evening the condition had not yet occurred.
In the Nuoro area
In Nuoro there have been some collapses in via Chironi and in other parts of the city. The Fire Department intervened immediately, with 4 teams (including one from the Macomer detachment) to secure threatened buildings and trees. The barracelli are also operational, engaged in removing more fallen branches in the neighborhoods and small landslides between Monte Ortobene and the countryside around the city, supporting farmers and residents. Municipal police and Civil Protection are operational in the Orgosolo area, monitoring the rivers around the Montes forest.
The restrictions
After the rains of the last few hours, the Olai and Govossai reservoirs reach the flood level. The Barbagia municipalities urge Abbanoa to revoke the restrictions set for January 27. And while the manager announces a new technical table for tomorrow in Nuoro, in the Province reinforcing the idea of reviewing the rationing plan, the mayors also trust in a review of the provision .
"The rainfall of these hours is a real godsend. I hope that in light of this situation the competent bodies will speed up the work for the interconnection between Olai and Govossai and for the strengthening of the capacity of the two dams", declares the mayor of Fonni and president of Anci Daniela Falconi.
