The employees of the giant aquarium worked at night to repair the damage in order to be able to open, but the beach was closed.
"The storm on the 5th of August, although the meteorologists predicted its arrival, caused enormous damage to our settlement: we have been to 19 locations so far, and my colleagues and I will continue the work tomorrow." - announced the mayor of Poroszló, János Bornemisza, on Saturday night. Early on Saturday evening, a storm raged in the settlement so strong that it tore off the renovated roof of the Poroszló school.
According to the mayor's announcement, the first thing to do is to clean up public buildings and public areas.
