Last night, a severe storm swept through southern Santa Fe, Argentina, causing nine trucks to overturn on the National Route 9, specifically on the stretch connecting the cities of Rosario and Córdoba. The incident occurred around 10:30 PM at kilometer 389 near the provincial border with Córdoba. The storm brought intense gusts of wind that not only affected the trucks but also led to reported damages in local areas, including roofs being blown off homes in nearby towns.

The trucks, which were heading towards Córdoba, lost control as they were suddenly hit by the storm's strong winds. Eyewitness accounts suggest that visibility dropped significantly due to the hail that accompanied the wind. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries reported, but the accidents caused significant delays for other motorists on the busy highway, as emergency services worked to clear the scene and manage traffic.

This incident highlights the vulnerability of transport infrastructure to extreme weather events, a concern that is increasingly relevant given the changing climate. The local government is expected to investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident and may take additional measures to ensure road safety during severe weather conditions in the future, particularly in regions prone to such storms.
