Fallen trees in different parts of the city, uncovered sewers, some houses affected by flooding, several short circuits; support to the Regional Hospital due to water leaks, and the overflow of the canal in the Parque las Palmas subdivision, are some of the reports attended by personnel after the storm registered on Tuesday night.
