Natural disaster 22 June 2022. Thousands of houses were destroyed! There has never been such a hail in Gironde, France The city of Tailan-Medoc, located northwest of the Bordeaux agglomeration, was hit the hardest on Monday evening by heavy hail that hit the Gironde. On Tuesday morning, a spectacular parade of tow trucks took place on the streets of the city, loaded with hail-damaged vehicles, sometimes as large as “tennis balls,“ according to some accounts. Dozens of roofers, some of whom spontaneously came from all over the Gironde to help the victims, took over the roofs of the houses. The goal is to isolate homes as much as possible, with more storms expected on Tuesday evening.
