Devastating cyclone strikes Bahía Blanca: residence ravaged by storm's fury

In a harrowing incident captured by @valenaccarino on December 17, 2023, Bahía Blanca, Argentina, fell victim to the relentless force of a Grade 3 cyclone. The tranquil evening took a sudden turn at 7:40 p.m. when heavy rain and fierce winds descended upon the private neighborhood of Pago Chico, located 15km from the city center. The storm wreaked havoc on Valenaccarino's residence, causing water to cascade through the lights and tearing apart parts of the ceiling. In a race against time, Valenaccarino documented the unfolding disaster as a section of the durlock collapsed. With water rising up to their heels, an urgent call to Valenaccarino's mother ensued, leading to a swift retreat to a neighbor's house for safety.
