Severe stroms have appeared in semidesert regions, where rain in the summer occurs very rarely – in Santiago was recorded 40mm+ rain, what made with January 2021 the rainiest January since meteorological measurements began (more than 150 years).
Region of Talca was completely flooded and problems have been reported from many parts of central Chile.
Severe storms in many cases destroyed a harvest, mainly grape fields report “agricultural catastrophe”.
In many parts, including Santiago, hails have occurred, what was immediately filmed into videos.
#Chile has been living a multi-year drought but this month a frontal system caused record rainfalls in the Central Regions. #Santiago recorded 40mm+ of rain, making January 2021 the rainest January in history with over 150 years of data (photo Quinta Normal). #Lluviaensantiagopic.twitter.com/KOctYL0J1u

This design is spectacular! You definitely know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Excellent job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
