The mistral lashing Sardinia, in the Nuorese gusts of wind at 140 kilometers per hour
Dozens of interventions by the firefighters, numerous damages in many areas of the islandThe wind whips Sardinia and in the Nuoro area the gusts exceed 140 km/h , also causing damage. A worker was injured last night near Budoni.
The mistral has forced the firefighters to numerous interventions in these hours . In Nuoro a telephone pole hit a parked car , in Arzachena a roof did not hold up and crushed a car . In Padru the roof of a building was taken off .
In La Maddalena, gutters, vertical signs and even unsafe trees have been made safe. In Caprera it was necessary to cut down a large pine tree which was threatening to collapse on the road.
Bad weather didn't spare Ogliastra either.
In the dozens of operations by the men of the 115, no injuries were reported. The only episode at the moment is the one that occurred not far from Budoni: a strong gust lifted and moved a container in a road construction site on the 131 DCN state road , causing it to slam into a housing module in which a worker was resting.
The 118 personnel rescued him and took him to hospital: he was assigned 10 days of treatment.
In the late afternoon of today in Villacidro, in via Parrocchia, the wind knocked down a large plant which fell on a parked car ( HERE THE VIDEO ), destroying the roof and the rear window. Despite being a very busy area, luckily no one was involved.
From the Decimomannu Air Force weather office they explain that the situation will improve from tomorrow.
