The results are not final. At least 13 people died on Saturday in Bahia Blanca (Argentina), following the collapse of the roof of the Bahiense del Norte sports club during a strong storm. A skating competition was taking place there.
“Firefighters continue to search for people still under the rubble,” the municipality of this port city in the southwest of the country said in a statement.
Wind gusts greater than 140 km/h
In addition to heavy rainfall, the city, which is partly deprived of electricity, recorded wind gusts of more than 140 km/h, according to weather service data.
These bad weather conditions also affected small neighboring towns, some even experiencing hail.
