Tucked Windblown roofing

By the winds are in different buildings and houses (parts of) roofs blown away . So had the emergency services in Naarden pluck the roof of a building blown away. In Rotterdam, a whole street was closed by loose roof panels. Because of the strong winds there is a risk that the plates blow off.



Radar blowing lighthouse

Daman lighthouse lost by storm radar. DenHelderactueel reports that there are no major problems arise, according to the Coast Guard by radar blown away. A mechanic will examine whether the radar is to recover. There is some noise in the absence of the radar, because it is now more difficult to keep the exact traffic monitored
