Heavy storms raged on Monday evening, especially in the Carinthian district of Völkermarkt. The fire brigades were called out on dozens of missions, the storm knocked down trees and even tore off the roof of a church tower near Kühnsdorf. In the evening the situation was still confusing, a crisis team met in Völkermarkt.
Up to 2,500 households were temporarily without power on Monday evening. Around 9:00 p.m., around 1,000 households were still not supplied. “The area around Lake Klopeiner See was particularly hard hit, there are trees all over the place,” said Robert Schmaranz from Kärnten Netz when asked by APA. According to Schmaranz, how much damage can be repaired depends on whether the fitters can get to the faulty areas at all during the night.
