"A water bomb of unprecedented strength, worse than what happened a few years ago." This was declared by the mayor of Thiesi, Gianfranco Solotta, after yesterday his town and the countryside were affected by a frightening storm that caused considerable inconvenience: tombs in the cemetery thrown to the ground, flooded houses and cellars, even a section of the road leading to Bessude collapsed.
«Today, given the unreassuring weather forecasts, we had to keep all schools of all levels closed in agreement with the fellow mayors of the neighboring municipalities - declared the mayor -. Water and mud have created innumerable damage, several houses have been involved, the urban, extra-urban and rural roads have been interrupted in many points due to landslides, the cemetery has flooded, literally displacing some columns of niches ».
Also this time the scenario that presented itself to the eyes of the people was terrifying, aggravated by the sea of mud that the water brought with it - added Solothurn -. The water mixed with the mud has entered the houses in the 167 de sos Padres area, causing enormous damage to those families who unfortunately will not be able to recover much of the furniture, furnishings and appliances that are hopelessly impregnated with mud. For this reason, the eco-centre will be exceptionally open from 9 in the morning and two vehicles will be available for the collection of bulky waste".
«Last night we urgently resolved the state of natural disaster and today we will carry out an inspection in all the affected areas for an initial estimate of the damages, for this reason anyone who has to report cases to us as yet unknown is requested to do so by calling me, l 'technical office of the Municipality or the councilors in order to be able to promptly make an overall estimate ", concluded the mayor.
Inconvenience also in Uri where, due to heavy rainfall, a grid of the waste water collection and parts of the surrounding asphalt in Via Principe Umberto "skipped". The same street was temporarily cordoned off at the crossroads with via IV Novembre.
