Thunderstruck Thessaloniki!!!!!!!!! (Greece) by Manolis Thr.
author's comments:
A major thunderstorm hit tonight Thessaloniki!! After the heat and the humidity we had all day, just after the sunset, a multicell began to form west of Thessaloniki. I prepared my camera and head for the sea-side walk of the city where it is a nice place to catch some lightnings! This storm was extreme... Torrential rain, severe winds, and an enormous frequency of lightnings hit the city with the result of many flooded roads and buildings, total blackout all over central north Greece (central Macedonia) after one bolt that hit the central power station and many many car and shop alarms started to shout! Of course all the people were scared and they were trying to find a shelter..
