An impressive downpour of water and hail surprised the inhabitants of Zaragoza this Thursday afternoon, forcing the interruption of the tram service for more than an hour and causing various cuts throughout the city. In addition, numerous cars were swept away by the rains and numerous streets in the Aragonese capital were flooded. Images of various users who had to get on the roofs of their vehicles to avoid being swept away by the flood quickly began to circulate on social networks. Urban buses were also affected by the large amounts of water accumulated on the main roads.
