As predicted by the weather, storms arrived, causing damage and inconvenience. In Forlì a water bomb with widespread hailstorms caused flooding in some areas of the city, including the historic center and in particular Piazza Saffi where the European Market is taking place this weekend. Since around 2.30pm today, as much as 50mm of rain has fallen in some areas: the drains and sewage systems have not been able to contain all the water which has fallen in such a short time, so much so as to cause run-off with various areas flooded but also increases in levels. hydrometric in smaller watercourses. The streets near the train station, Corso Mazzini, Corso della Repubblica and other arteries such as Ca Ossi are underwater. In the Ca’Ossi area the roads turned into small torrents, two cars remained stuck in the railway underpass in via Bertini, flooded with water. The underpass of Via Gorizia and those of the ring road of Viale Roma and the airport are also closed. Several trees fell also due to the strong wind, creating inconvenience, in particular a large tree fell at the intersection of viale Roma and via Monari. There were several calls and interventions from the Fire Brigade. After the flood a year ago, the sewage system still has problems and inefficiencies. Problematic situation also in the province, in Forlimpopoli and Predappio.
