Description
Colombia was hit by severe flooding and windstorms across Cundinamarca and Nariño after sudden intense rainfall during the country’s second annual rainy season.
The main cause was short, violent downpours overwhelming local drainage infrastructure and causing river overflows, despite Colombia recently entering an El Niño cycle that typically reduces overall seasonal rainfall.
The most important impacts include the flooding of the critical Autopista Sur highway in Soacha, structural damage to hundreds of homes from severe gusts in Funza, and widespread agricultural loss affecting thousands of families along the Pacific coast.
In this video, viewers will see footage of submerged highways and trapped vehicles in Soacha, wind-damaged roofs and fallen power lines in Funza, landslides blocking Cundinamarca transport corridors, and river overflow in rural Tumaco. Confirmed casualty and missing-person figures are pinned in the comments and updated as official numbers change.
Global Weather covers natural disasters and extreme weather events as they develop, using sourced reporting and avoiding unsupported speculation.
