Hail storm rips roofs from buildings injuring 12 in northern Thailand
Terrified residents cowered in their homes as a ferocious tropical hailstorm ripped roofs from buildings injuring at least 12 people in northern Thailand.
Humid temperatures soared to 34 degrees Celsius before the raging downpour lashed homes causing extensive damage in Chiang Mai province shortly after 3:30pm local time on Saturday.
Officials said that at least 12 people were injured across the city when high voltage power lines collapsed, roofs were dislodges and billboards toppled over.
Electricity was lost across more than half of Chiang Mai, the country's second largest city after the capital Bangkok, while dozens of cars were also damaged.
Emergency workers were still working to restore power to some homes and repair damage on Sunday morning, March 19.
Thailand and other countries in Southeast Asia are approaching their annual monsoon rainy season which sees soaring temperatures followed by powerful rain storms.
