Lagada

As authorities assess the damage wrought by the heavy rainstorms and floods a few days ago in parts of central and northern Greece, a state of emergency has been declared for the municipalities on the island of Evia and in the regional unit Thessaloniki that were hardest hit. 

After a spell of unusually good weather for November, conditions took a turn for the worse on Wednesday. Bad weather caused damage to infrastructure in many parts of the country, with a 17-meter-long bridge in the village of Lagada, near Konitsa, in northern Greece, collapsing following torrential rain. Heavy rainfall in the broader region also damaged crops.
