After last night's storm, accompanied by hail and strong winds, several municipalities in Bulgaria suffered serious damages and declared a state of emergency.
In the Municipality of Nova Zagora, several villages suffered damages. Ice chunks have broken windows, there is damage to roofs and buildings. Today is also a non-school day for schools and kindergartens in the municipality. Despite the efforts of the hail control service, orchards with cherries and peaches were damaged. From the range near Staro Selo, 100 anti-hail missiles were fired at the cloud system, which was atypical for Bulgaria and looked like a tornado with a height of about 15 kilometers. The biggest damage was reported in Shipka and Kazanlak, where partial state of emergency was declared. There are no injured people. All roads are now clear. The damage is yet to be assessed. A state of emergency has also been declared in Lyaskovets, and the municipal plan for disasters and crises has been activated in Veliko Tarnovo. In Teteven, last night's storm and torrential rain with hail were also devastating, while in the village of Ribaritsa the ice chunks were the size of an egg. There is serious damage to crops, cars and real estate.
The danger of hail remains in effect today. The National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology announced an orange code for heavy rainfall in 12 areas of the country and yellow for another 7.
