Charalambos Steriadis, šef civilne zaštite u sjevernoj Grčkoj, opisao je ovo nevrijeme kao “prirodni fenomen bez presedana”.
Oluja je uslijedila nakon toplotnog talasa u Grčkoj s temperaturama koje su rasle i do 37 stepeni u posljednja dva dana. Fotografije i snimci objavljeni na društvenim mrežama pokazuju srušena stabla, prevrnute automobile i oštećene zgrade.
Absolute disaster tonight. Incredible destructive storm swept through the town and caused absolute havoc. Massive amount of destruction and rumours of someone missing. How anyone was not killed or seriously injured is a miracle. Although that still remains to be seen. pic.twitter.com/hAV8UjduKO

“Ovo je prvi put u mojoj 25-godišnjoj karijeri ljekara da sam doživio nešto ovakvo. Sve se desilo tako naglo, tako iznenada”, rekao je Athansios Kaltsas, ljekar koji je zbrinjavao povrijeđene.
