Ankara stunned by hailstorm and showers
Hail and showers paralyzed life in Ankara
Ankara, the capital city of Turkey, experienced heavy rain and hail that had a significant impact on daily life. The sudden showers in the afternoon quickly turned into hail, causing chaos on the streets.
The hail, which lasted for approximately 5 minutes, led to floods in various parts of the city. This resulted in vehicles struggling to navigate through the traffic, creating further difficulties for residents.
The roofs of houses and roads were covered in a white blanket of hail, creating a surreal landscape in the city. Despite the challenging conditions, some citizens found themselves caught outside in the rain, waiting for a break in the weather.
Interestingly, at Ankaragücü’s facility in Maltepe, athletes playing football continued with their game despite the heavy rain. The determination and resilience of these individuals in the face of adversity were truly admirable.
As the hail and showers eventually subsided, residents of Ankara were left to deal with the aftermath of the sudden weather phenomenon. The unexpected nature of the event serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of nature and the importance of being prepared for such occurrences in the future.
