Large hailstones pummelled Paraguay’s capital Asuncion on Saturday (Oct 3) as severe storms swept across parts of the country, bringing heavy rain and strong wind gusts. The storm damaged vehicles and roofs, leaving parts of Asuncion and surrounding cities without electricity, according to local media. Weather officials said such storms are typical during the Southern Cone’s spring season, though their intensity may have been amplified by the El Nino weather pattern. #paraguay #hailstorm Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
