A causa de la depresión tropical 'Imelda', las calles de Houston se han visto afectadas con inundaciones extremas, a tal punto que el público las ha comparado con un tsunami. Internautas comparten a través de redes sociales imágenes del desastre.
Los hechos comenzaron durante el jueves cuando la localidad se vio invadida por tormentas y fuertes ráfagas de viento, después de que 'Imelda' tocara tierra el martes sobre el Golfo de México.
Según informan meteorólogos, no se había visto algo similar en Texas desde el huracán 'Harvey' en 2017. Añadieron que 'Imelda' podría alcanzar una precipitación de hasta 100 centímetros.
En el material compartido en la red se aprecian personas, animales y vehículos atrapados entre las inundaciones.
